Copper Lungs dropped their new single, ‘Life Your Way’, on the 30th of August. Drawing inspiration from life’s highs and lows, Copper Lungs continues their upward trajectory with a track that feels both personal and universally relatable.
‘Life Your Way’ is a high-energy anthem that started as a joke, when the songwriter Darren was challenged to write a song about his dog. But what could have remained a lighthearted idea actually turned into something deeper. ‘Life Your Way’ is about struggling with the anxiety of loss but living on afterwards in a way that respects and honours those who have left us.
Fans of bands like Nothing But Thieves and Biffy Clyro will immediately feel at home in the soundscape Copper Lungs creates. From the opening chords, the Dundee-based quartet establishes an infectious energy, driven by boisterous guitars. The song’s pacing is tight, with each verse building momentum towards an explosive chorus that demands to be belted out at full volume. It’s sure to be stuck in your head for days! The lyrics inspire listeners to live authentically, no matter what life throws at them.
Throughout their journey as a band, Copper Lungs has embraced a deeper and more authentic sound and changed their approach to songwriting to explore themes of life that everyone can connect with like, without sacrificing the upbeat vibe. It’s a balance that the band seems to have mastered, showcasing their evolution as talented musicians who can speak to the heart while keeping you dancing.
If Copper Lungs’ earlier releases, such as ‘Younger Heart’ and ‘Falling,’ marked their return to the music scene, ‘Life Your Way’ continues to show why they are one of the most exciting rising acts in the UK.
