Mark Lanegan Band unveil wistful new single "Playing Nero"
Mark Lanegan Band have shared new single "Playing Nero" from their forthcoming album, Somebody’s Knocking.
"Playing Nero" arrives after April's lead single "Stitch It Up".
Speaking about the new single, Lanegan says, "Sietse van Gorkom, who has been an important part of my creative circle since 2013, writing charts and playing strings as well as touring and writing with me on occasion, sent me the music for this tune. I wrote the words in twenty minutes, having just received some unhappy news that informed the lyrics and began a healing process."
Somebody's Knocking was recorded in LA across 11 days, and is Mark Lanegan Band's first album since last year's With Animals collaborative album with Duke Garwood.
