Well, this is quite a departure for the Bitter Pills!

It is a moody atmospheric piece with piano and strings accompanying Nico Sc’erri’s excellent vocals. This is the case until about mid-way through when the band’s trademark immense guitar sound kicks in along with Chris Cooper’s monumental drums. This sounds very much like a grown-up record that ought to broaden the band’s appeal even further. The song is partnered by a very cool video set in a church. I sense great things are ahead for this mighty duo.
