MISERY SIGNALS will premiere Weight Of The World from their upcoming full-length CONTROLLER on MySpace today.
Speaking on the song bassist Kyle Johnson relates:
It was the first song we recorded for the new album and its a different song for us, its little angrier, faster and actually the shortest song clocking in at a little over two minutes.
Vocalist Karl Schubach adds
It was the first song we tracked and Devin (Townsend, Producer) had me run through the entire song once just to get down the idea of where I wanted to go. He told me that I nailed it right off the bat and we ended up keeping most of it as the finished version. The song itself is about deciding whether you should tell someone what you really think and get it off of your chest or take the high road and let them think that they are right. That situation can really blow up.
The band recorded the entire album with Devin Townsend (Strapping Young Lad, Devin Townsend Band) who was at the helm of the bands 2004 debut Of Malice and The Magnum Heart. Since wrapping up recording in March, the band have finished a European Run, which sold out most of the dates.
Misery Signals have just started a US tour supporting As I Lay Dying.
