Now, I stumbled upon this band by absolute chance and I’m glad I did. I’m going to be honest and call a spade a spade. From what I could find, this band is brand new. The oldest music I dug up on them was from 2018 and there is not much. With that being said, and from what I did find… they’re going to blow up.
The New Heat is an indie/punk rock band from London and their name says it all. Their single “No Way Back” is going to be released February 15th and it is coming with a music video. (You can catch a 30 sec preview of this video from their twitter in the description).
My interpretation of their song is that of a break up. It told a story of an unhappy relationship with the happy ending being their separation. This verse is an example of a place we’ve all been before:
“Drinking gin with all your friends, they don’t think I’m good enough for them.. and I’ve had enough”
The relationship reached a point where there was no going back, “Nothing you can ever say will ever take the pain away.” Although there was hardship, the verses and chorus continue a story of knowingly leaving a relationship for the better:
“So lets just celebrate, don’t be so down and blue, I never hesitated before I met you”
“Nothing you can ever do will ever bring me back to you”
The New Heat seem to tell a story of heartache and possibly healing. That’s just my interpretation. You can catch 2 of the members of the band playing a full live version of the track on a rooftop in London in the link below. Check these guys out.
