Alexisonfire release new song ‘Complicit’
ALEXISONFIRE have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled Complicit, comes on the heels of Familiar Drugs which marked the first time the band has released new music in almost 10 years.
The new song was produced by the band, long-time friend Karl Bareham (CITY AND COLOUR), and mixed by Grammy-award winning Jacquire King (Tom Waits, KINGS OF LEON, MODEST MOUSE) and speaking about the new song,vocalist George Pettit explains, “Complicit’is about recognizing the unfair advantages that we are afforded as white, heterosexual males. It’s about rejecting regressionist ideas of racism, misogyny and hetero supremacy. It’s about accepting that there is no freedom and no future in a world that is not inclusive.”
