Australian band RedHook unveils new single ‘Breaking Up With’ via Adventure Cat Records. Vocalist Emmy Mack discusses the inspiration behind the track :
“This song is pretty much the antithesis of our most popular single ‘Bad Decisions‘. Rather than revelling in being a total piece of shit, this one is about breaking that cycle of self-hate, forgiving your past mistakes, and just deciding to be bloody kinder to yourself. Lyrically, it takes the piss out of break-up cliches to signify ending that toxic relationship (with, you know, yourself) and starting fresh. I hope everyone who vibed with Bad Decisions will also be shaking their hips in the moshpit to this one.”
Speaking of the clip, she adds:
“Last year, I was lucky enough to live out my WWE Attitude Era dreams at Sydney’s PWA Colosseum event, so I figured – why not throw the party inside a wrestling ring and get a bunch of my PWA superstar mates involved? The shoot was bloody insane. I got to bust a hurricanrana on myself in the perfect visual metaphor for laying the smackdown on all of my toxic traits once and for all – RedHook 3:16 says I just whooped my own ass!”
‘Breaking Up With’ is the third single to be released since their debut album Postcard From A Living Hell, which came out last year. It follows the previously released tracks ‘Tourist‘ and ‘Scream 2′.
