Northern rockers The K’s are back with another huge rock tune from their upcoming album, ‘Pretty On The Internet’.
The K’s have shared the anthemic new song ‘Gravestone’ about the “search for validation”.
The popular indie rockers are back with another infectious guitar tune that tackles frontman Jamie Boyle’s “internal struggle” of wanting to feel like his “existence matters”.
He said of the track “Gravestone is a song I wrote about the internal struggle of wanting to feel like my existence matters. It reflects the hope that, in the end, it will all “work out” and not be “for nothing” and I’ll have done enough to be worthy of being remembered. I think during the writing process I had a moment of realisation to the fact I often put aside the more meaningful, life-affirming aspects of existence like family and relationships to instead spend that time trying to create something to make me one day believe worthy of the love I receive.”
He continued: “The song is an honest reflection of a mental battle to try and believe that I have earned the right to exist, a privilege that gets taken away from many more deserving people than me, and that my life will leave a mark that lasts beyond me. It’s an exploration of everything that whizzes around my head from ambition to self-worth and the search for validation.”
‘Gravestone’ is the second single to be taken from the band’s second studio album, ‘Pretty On The Internet’, following the release of ‘Breakdown In My Bedroom’.
The LP – the follow-up to 2024’s ‘I Wonder If the World Knows?’ – is produced by Grammy Award winner Jim Lowe (Stereophonics, The Dandy Warhols) and mixed by Pete Hutchings (Royal Blood, Foals, Nothing But Thieves).
