HORSELL
COMMON have announced the release of SING THE NEWS – the second single
from their acclaimed debut album ‘The Rescue’, along with a national
tour to celebrate.
The
latest single by HORSELL COMMON represents exactly why this band is one
of the most revered acts on the Aussie circuit – honest, sincere and
melodic rock devoid of pretension and full of the hook-laden energy
that has defined their song writing. Taken
from their debut album ‘The Rescue’, SING THE NEWS is the band’s most
radio friendly track to date – soft in parts, catchy as hell and with
the kind of master build up to excite even the coldest fans. But that
is not to say that the track is anywhere close to the cookie-cutter pop
so many of their musical peers have fallen for. HORSELL COMMON has
written a song that redefines how inspiring Aussie rock can really be.
SING
THE NEWS is full of quirks and has it’s own positive energy that shines
through with a subtlety that only true emotion can convey. The lyrics

portray the importance of remaining optimistic about bad news, singing
it to the world to convey the real beauty in life’s ups and downs. It’s
the same lyrical aspect that is the reason the band appeals to people
of all walks of life. The same happy yet realistic outlook that has
made the band connect so strongly with those that know and love
what HORSELL COMMON is about.
accompanying film clip depicts the band’s two members
(guitarist/vocalist Mark Stewart and bass player Luke Cripps) in a full
blown chase of each other, playing up to the band’s fun side despite
the serious nature of the song. With BMX bike riding, parkour and full
throttle chases throughout Melbourne’s famous alleyways and streets,
the clip has more stunts (and stunt doubles) than your average kung-fu
blockbuster. It is safe to say that just as no one who hears HORSELL
COMMON will forget them, no one will be forgetting this amazing film
clip any time soon, either.
HORSELL
COMMON will once again be taking their stunning live show on the road -
this time in support of SING THE NEWS. After selling-out shows on their
album tour earlier this year, make sure you get in quick for your
chance to see them at their best.
