Royals release new music video for ‘Jaded’
ROYALS have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Jaded, is taken from the Southampton-based pop-punk band’s upcoming new EP, A Spark To Ignite, which is scheduled to be released in June this year, via self-release.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist Luke Smithson says, “Jaded is the latest single from our brand new EP A Spark To Ignite which is out June 11th. This song was written towards the end of 2020 when COVID-19 was really starting to take its toll on me. It has a very strong lyrical message which is very personal to me however, I am sure will be very relatable to a lot people given what we have been through over the last year. The theme is strongly based around mental health issues, being isolated and alone, and wanting things to go back to the way they were. Although the main concept of the song was written based on COVID, it can be related to with other issues so will hold its meaning and relatability over time. This is probably the darkest & heaviest song we’ve ever released however still keeps true to our upbeat, pop punk sound. Musically this song is quite a bit different to some of our previous releases, being a little experimental with new sounds such as more synths, and also a heavier breakdown, influenced by our heavier music inspirations, so we’re really excited to see what the response from our listeners is like. It’s definitely a step towards where we would like our sound to be as a band. We hope you all like it and can’t wait to show you what’s next.”
