BC Camplight has released a second preview of his The Last Rotation Of Earth album titled "She's Gone Cold".

"She's Gone Cold" is the second track to be lifted from The Last Rotation Of Earth, following last month's lead outing and title-track.

BC Camplight says of the single, "I never thought I'd make a breakup song. That seemed like something other artists did. Then my fiancé and partner of 9 years left. It's a pain I still haven't shed. By this point my album had already been recorded. So I scrapped the whole thing and started again as my view of the world and myself had violently shifted. The first thing I did was write ‘She’s Gone Cold’, about 2 days after the relationship ended. I enlisted the power of members of the Liverpool Philharmonic to create a cinematic experience that depicts one of the deepest pains a human can feel... the death of love. I used actual quotes from the breakup to create my first power ballad, albeit a somewhat demented one."

The Last Rotation Of Earth will follow BC Camplight's 2020 album Shortly After Takeoff, and is described by Brian 'BC Camplight' Christinzio as "more cinematic, sophisticated and nuanced than anything I’ve done before."

He adds, "This is not a story of victory. It is a document created in the shadow of incredible darkness. One from which the creator hadn't planned on escaping, and still doesn't. Hence the title of the album. It is the result of an illness that I've battled my whole life. It isn't something that the world has done to me. It's the world I live in and it's no one's fault."

"She's Gone Cold" is out now. BC Camplight's new album of the same name will arrive via Bella Union on 12 May, and is available to pre-order now. He'll play London's O2 Shepherds Bush Empire on 23 November.
