Swedish female heavy metal band Crucified Barbara have a new single ‘Lunatic #1’, out as of May 19th that’s taken from their new album, In the Red, available on Despotz Records.
The frantically paced track has an accompanying video, directed by Magnus Ewald, featuring the girls running through a pasture intercut with live shots taken from a special performance for select fans at Stockholm’s Stampen club.

Frontwoman, Mia Coldheart said, “This is one of our favourite tracks on the album, it’s fun and powerful to play live and brings energy to the crowd! The lyrics are about being in a team with someone special and together you become unstoppable – invincible! ‘Lunatic’ is named after one of the best show jumping horses in Sweden, I met his rider Jens Fredricson two years ago and he talked about how much you need to work and dedicate time to reach your goals and the top, and the inspiring meeting with him gave me the final strength and inspiration I needed to give 110% to finish the In the Red album. I thought the name of his best team player would be perfect to name this song. Together all of us in the band made our best album so far.”
As noted previously at RAMZine, Crucified Barbara kick off their US tour, supporting Girlschool, on 20 May in Ramona, CA, running through to 14 June in Brooklyn.
