Following their latest album, Invincible, topping the Swiss album charts, Shakra return with a new single, with a somewhat Christmas theme as the Swiss hard rockers deliver ‘Angels Landing‘.
“‘Angels Landing’ – a sonic odyssey at the threshold of longing and fulfilment.” The band declared. “This song is a rock anthem for the rediscovery of lost hearts, inviting you to a rendezvous at a mythical place: where only angels dare to land. Are you ready for the landing?”
The new single follows Shakra hitting the gas pedal with their previous single, ‘What You See (And What You Don’t)’.
“We all know that phrase, ‘What you see is what you get.’ However, that’s only half the truth because what you get also comes with what you don’t see.” The band commented. In a world where appearances often deceive, the single took a look into the duality of reality.
Lyrics like “Every good has its bad, Even a joke can make you sad,” serve as a haunting reminder that everything comes at a cost. With frontman Mark Fox and the band’s crisp riffs, the song takes a soul-searching journey to question what is genuine and what is illusory. “What you see and what you don’t is what you get,” sings Fox, reminding us that life often comes with unwelcome surprises, and it’s up to us to navigate through its complexities. So, take a closer look, and then another, because all that glitters isn’t always gold.
