Liquid Mike, one of the beloved and persistently good bands presently understanding of Higher Michigan, are gearing as much as launch their new album Hell Is An Airport. The pop-rockers introduced the follow-up to final yr’s Paul Bunyan’s Slingshot with two singles, “Groucho Marx” and “Promoting Swords,” and so they adopted these up with “AT&T.” As we speak Liquid Mike have shared one other Airport preview with “Claws.” I’m upset to study it’s not a Charli XCX cowl, but it surely sounds superior nonetheless.
“Claws” is about these nights whenever you ought to be sleepy however you’re feeling extremely stressed, and then you definately get much more stressed occupied with how try to be sleeping however you aren’t, anticipating the sleep deprivation that’ll inevitably make tomorrow a tricky one. Who can relate? Fortunately, “Claws” will wake you proper up, a two-minute blast of beefy guitars, rip-roaring drums, and hooks primed for singing alongside: “Then I keep down/ It’s all I can do/ Once I get up/ My physique hates me for it,” Mike Maple sings.
“Claws” arrives with a Bob Sweeney-directed video that splices collectively clips of a Liquid Mike gig together with low-resolution footage of a canine present. Get it? Canine have claws. Test it out under.
The self-released Hell Is An Airport is out 9/12.
