L.S. Dunes have given fans another taste of their upcoming new album ‘Violet’ in the shape of latest single ‘Paper Tigers’.
On the song, Frank Iero says “I think when I initially started writing the chord progression for this song I was originally writing it for myself, because it didn’t feel like an L.S. Dunes song to me, and if it was an L.S. Dunes song, it would most certainly be a departure from what we had done in the past. And then I started to think well, that’s really silly of me, why wouldn’t Dunes be able to do something like this? If I want listeners to not put us in a box and believe we can do anything then I’m going to have to believe it first. So I reworked the progression a little bit and sent it over. Hearing it now, I can’t believe I ever doubted it. Paper Tigers was always an L.S. Dunes song. Together we can do anything.”
Tucker Rule adds “This is the song I listen to most on our record. Yes, I listen to my own record because I think it’s that good. This song scratches all the itches… sludgy tempo, heavy ballad, mega riffs, soaring vocals and lots of space to play cool drums. This would be one of the songs I’d take to the deserted island with me. This is my favourite song on the record!“
