Melodic, Angry, Visceral and LOUD! ‘I f***ing hate how lame we’ve all become’ Former ‘The Sea’ front man releases rousing new LiVES single ‘Cancelled’
Artist Name: LiVES
Single: Cancelled
Release Date: 19th July 2024
Label: Roulette Records
UK rock act LiVES return with ‘Cancelled’, a raw, unapologetic, guitar driven song that makes for one hell of a tasty racket! A timely reflection of the hypocrisy all around, in the midst of a general election. The second offering from the forthcoming album ‘Let Them Eat Cake’ (album released 25th October), produced by John Cornfield (Muse, Oasis, The Verve, New Model Army, Supergrass, Razorlight, Robert Plant, Stone Roses). ‘Cancelled’ follows lead single ‘Come Together#2’, which was co-written by 5Brit Award Winner James Morrison.
Reflecting on ‘Cancelled’ singer/songwriter Peter Chisholm states - ‘Cancelled is about my feeling of disenfranchisement of online and political society, my total despondence and hatred of the right AND the left...far right and postmodernism attitudes..They claim to be decent whilst being indecent, tolerant whilst being intolerant...always outraged, self righteous, aggressive, violent...they are swimming in hypocrisy and can’t see it. Meanwhile the real elite destroy the world around us, seemingly unnoticed whilst we fight amongst ourselves. I hate them all!!’
'Somewhere between The White Stripes and QOTSA...rock stripped to its most basic ingredients, and played with absolute gusto.' KERRANG!
LiVES were formed by Peter Chisholm formerly of cult UK rock duo (along with his brother Alex) The Sea, who released 3 studio albums and played over 1000 concerts and festivals (inc: Glastonbury, CMJ, SXSW, Eurosonic, and supported Muse, and The Kills on UK/European tours). Coupling their aggressive soundscape with explicit socio-political lyrics, LiVES make music for the disenfranchised, for the people that don’t belong…
