Los Angeles/London based alternative/dark/punk rock band Die So Fluid has released "Bittersweet", the debut single taken from their long awaited fifth album, One Bullet From Paradise. The single was produced by Drew Richards and you can hear it in the player below.
""Bittersweet" is an alter ego who came to life as I wrote the song", says vocalist/bassist Grog. "Part me, part fictional, she embodies all the stuff I like about many of my fave female tv, film and graphic novel characters. She makes a statement about embracing yourself as you are, thorns n all. She’s kick ass but not psycho, sexy and clever, fun and darkly deep. She parties hard and rocks her talents hard", adds Grog.
After a year of turmoil and tragedy in 2016 - which saw the sudden and unexpected death of their beloved friend and drummer Al Fletcher - the remaining 2 band members Grog and Mr Drew stepped back to contemplate not only the meaning of life; but the meaning of their band, their music and their future. Al had been a huge part of Die So Fluid's sound. He'd won a Grammy for his drumming and his finesse, thunder, power, enthusiasm & creativity always enhanced the band's rough, tough, soaring, bittersweet rock songs.
At the time of his death Grog and Mr Drew had written a bunch of songs for a new album but nothing had been recorded. After a period of reflection they went back to the drawing board. They had a lot more to say. They wrote new songs. No holds barred. Harder, heavier, faster, punkier. No filler. No fat. No fucking around. Life is short. Why wait for tomorrow.
They asked friend Justin Bennett (Skinny Puppy, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult) to play drums on the album. Grog recorded bass and vocals in LA, Mr Drew recorded guitars, synths, loops and noises in London and Justin recorded the drums in Bologna, Italy. Stay tuned for more details about the upcoming album, but now give a listen to "Bittersweet". Link
