Parkway Drive return with new song Sacred
Published in Entertainment News
Parkway Drive have returned with their first single in three years.
The Australian heavy metal quintet - who first formed in 2003, and released their debut album 'Killing With a Smile' two years later - have described their new song 'Sacred' as a "wrecking ball of positive energy".
Frontman Winston McCall said in a statement about the track: "The mission statement for 'Sacred' is pretty damn simple. An anthemic wrecking ball of positive energy.
"Our lives and the way we exist in the world has been pushed further and further through the lenses and frames of negativity and hopelessness.
"Obsession with everything we lack, everything we hate, everyone we blame, everything that keeps us down.
"We sell the unique parts of us most precious just to buy back manufactured pieces of self in order that we may feel whole again.
"'Sacred' is our identity. 'Sacred' is our time. Never lose sight and never lose hope."
As of yet, there is no word on the follow-up to their 2022 LP 'Darker Still'.
Winston previously shared how their music gets "darker" when the "world gets darker".
Speaking about their last studio effort, he told NME: "I guess Parkway's work gets darker because [the world] gets darker - the concept of 'Darker Still', even just as a phrase in itself, very much mirrors what is actually happening in the world."
