The GRAMMY-nominated duo, BONES UK, have released their new single, ‘FIX’, alongside the official music video from their sophomore album, SOFT, due out on 13th September through Sumerian Records.
‘FIX,’ the new single, is haunting and delves into the tumultuous dynamics of a relationship where both partners believe they can heal each other’s wounds, only to end up causing more harm. The song captures the raw emotion and the paradox of trying to fix someone else while being broken yourself, highlighting the destructive cycle that can ensue when love turns into a misguided attempt to mend what can’t easily be repaired.
SOFT builds on the massive success of their 2019 self-titled debut. The unapologetically rebellious duo returns with a visceral, anthemic take on their future-rock mélange of swaggering guitars, gritty electronics, and love-yourself / think-for-yourself lyrics. The 11 tracks are bound by through lines of massive hooks, bold stylistic cocktails, and empowering lyrics.
“It’s everything you loved about the first record, turned up,” said vocalist/guitarist Rosie Bones. “Keeping things scrappy, raw and real, with enough electronic beats to keep our industrial dance-heads happy and enough heartbreakers to keep our romantics listening.”
SOFT is a spirited “fuck you” to the status quo. The debut single from this record, ‘Won’t Settle’ defies societal pressures to “settle down” at a certain age, its ragged stop-start guitar a wakeup slap-in-the-face features Mike Shuman from Queens of the Stone Age.
London-bred BONES UK are vocalist/guitarist Rosie Bones and guitarist Carmen Vandenberg, who unapologetically speak their truth and combine the disconnect between the status quo and the glorious world inside their heads through heavy rock riffs and rough-edged electronics.
Their self-titled debut album in 2019 earned them their first GRAMMY nomination in Best Rock Performance for the highly acclaimed song, ‘Pretty Waste’ and the cover of David Bowie’s ‘I’m Afraid of Americans,’ which has over 66 million streams worldwide.
BONES UK have been releasing singles, remixes and touring extensively with Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, Korn, Stone Temple Pilots, Alice In Chains, The Cult, The Struts, Tom Morello, Grandson, and Simple Creatures, to name a few. The duo will be on the Loaded Greatest Hits Tour this summer with Bush in the US.
