Harakiri For The Sky is releasing its new album Arson on February 16, just in time to meet the cold and gray weather with music that's equally as bleak. We're pleased to premiere the band's new song and video "Heroin Waltz" today, which perfectly encapsulates that desolate, frozen feeling of the winter and life in general.
Here's what vocalist J.J. had to say about the song and video.
"This song is not primarily about heroin or doing drugs inherently, but also about the aspiration to find warmth in life and the search for something that makes you feel complete. I think it is almost impossible to find this warmness and equanimity, as life is nothing but a continuous downward spiral. The longing is willing to abate after a few years, but the sadness will last forever."
Pre-order the album here and if you're in Europe, be sure to catch the band on tour!
