London-based indie rockers The Vaccines have shared their new single “Love To Walk Away“ and its accompanying video.
The track is another taste of their upcoming sixth album ‘Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations‘, due to be released on January 12 via Thirty Tigers. Pre-order your copy here.
Co-written with album producer Andrew Wells (Halsey, Phoebe Bridgers), “Love To Walk Away” follows the band’s November earworm “Lunar Eclipse,” as well as the instant Vaccines classic “Heartbreak Kid” and the cathartic “Sometimes, I Swear.”
Speaking about it, bandleader Justin Young says:
“Sometimes going into an album you know exactly what it is you want the music to do, and other times you’re waiting for the music to tell you what to do,” says Young. “We knew we were ready to make another record, but it wasn’t until we wrote ‘Love To Walk Away’ on the first day in the studio with Andrew that we knew how it would sound and feel. So this is the song responsible for the album’s direction sonically and thematically. Given the record’s central theme is not knowing what direction you’re headed in, it feels poignant that the music was so sure of itself so quickly.”
