Video premiere: Black Oak County “Crossed the Line”
Danish rock band Black Oak County releases a new single from the band’s coming album “III”.
According to Black Oak County, “Crossed the Line” is a song about addiction and the struggles we face on our own even though we shouldn’t have to. It’s about throwing your life away because of substances, going back to a toxic relationship, or whatever you might be struggling with on a personal level. Musically, “Crossed the Line” is also a song about firsts for the Danish rockers, thanks to the song being co-written and produced by Nicklas Sonne (Defecto, Aries Descendant).
“We’re used to playing fast and heavy riffs, but this one is really a particular thundering one! It’s definitely one of the more metal-inspired songs on the album, with a constant chugging riff, and an almost metalcore-esque groove for the chorus. It really helps sell the story of desperation, frustration and disappointment, which is very prominent in the lyrics. Another first was that we open the song right on Niels’ singing, which really catches you on the spot and draws you into the song immediately.”
“Crossed the Line” is the opening track of Black Oak County’s upcoming album “III”, which will be released on 25th October via Mighty Music.
Black Oak County consists of Niels Beier (guitar, vocals), René Kristensen (bass, vocals), Jack Svendsen (guitar) and Mike Svendsen (drums).
