Single File: Billy Talent - "Afraid of Heights"
8 GREAT
Afraid of Heights, title track from Billy Talent's forthcoming fifth LP, is a typical lead single on the surface; a snappy, subdued version of their familiar guitar attack, the kind of song that gives off heavy "we need a single" vibes. However, upon further inspection, it's more than that; it's a natural maturation of their core sound and the paydirt unearthed from the exploratory impulses heard on Dead Silence. More to the point (and unlike a few past singles), it's an incredibly accessible Billy Talent song that doesn't sound forced or neutered.
Afraid of Heights comes out July 29. Pre-order options can be found here.
