”Higher” rockets listeners into a whirlwind of catchy riffs and cheekily dark lyrics that dance on the fine line of temptation. This track isn’t just about addiction; it’s a rollercoaster ride through the all-consuming flames of any obsession, be it love, lust, or the forbidden fruit of choice.
With music and lyrics by Mathias Wallin, and recorded with Ronny Milianowicz at Studio Seven Sweden, ”Higher is a wicked love letter to our vices,” grins Mathias. ”Whether it’s the bottle, a bad romance, or the other secrets you try to hide in the darkness. It’s all about riding that high, no safety net in sight.” Guitarist Pär-Olof Persson adds a twist of irony with his strings, ”This song is like that last drink you shouldn’t have but do anyway. It’s the perfect track for those moments when you throw caution to the wind and say, ’What the F!'” Vocalist David Johagen’s delivery is as intoxicating as the subject matter. ”I love the double entendre in ’Higher.’ It’s about getting lost in something so deeply, you don’t know whether you’re flying or falling,” David chuckles. ”And let’s be honest, who hasn’t been there? It’s a universal guilty pleasure.” ”Higher” is a devilishly clever track that winks at the listener, inviting them to embrace their inner rebel. It’s a celebration of life’s guilty pleasures, wrapped in a coat of Carnal Agony’s signature metal sound.
“Higher” is available for streaming and digital download at all major digital services from April 30, 2021.
