Newcastle native punk rock band Trophy Eyes has just published their brand new single “Hurt”. About “Hurt”, vocalist John Floreani states that writing “Hurt” was the very natural process he’s gotten so far after writing a “Trophy Eyes” song. “I rushed out of my shower, Covered in suds and in nothing but a towel In my mobile phone with my mouth. The rest of the song only wrote itself,” adds John. Stream “Hurt” here: smarturl.it/TEHurt.
He goes on to share that “It was truly the first time I could say how I really feel in a song. Being able to portray the emotion, no matter the cost, has been a luxury for me of late and has been nurtured since I wrote my first Trophy Eyes song – holding back less and less with every release. With that, the musical accompaniment came naturally as well, as an almost cheery feel to an otherwise tragic song. I believe that was because of the freedom I felt when writing it. In many cases, this is the song Trophy Eyes has always been trying to write, and with the experimentation of “Chemical Miracle” opening doors for us in songwriting, we were finally able to express ourselves naturally and honestly.”
