STRAIGHT FOR THE SUN share poignant single “Fall Away”

STRAIGHT FOR THE SUN Band Members

Today, Birmingham-based alternative metallers STRAIGHT FOR THE SUN have released their moving new single and lyric video for ‘Fall Away’. The track, which closely follows previous single ‘Pulling Teeth’, is the quintets latest offering since their appearance at Bloodstock 2024 and recent UK tour with Temple Balls.

On the new single, vocalist Callum Green comments:
“‘Fall Away’ is a song I’ve been trying to write for years. I lost my dad when I was 15 and I’ve always wanted to put into words how it’s affected me and made me feel but could never quite get it right. I didn’t just lose my dad but my best mate too. ‘Fall Away’ really shows the grief and struggle I’ve felt, while still trying to make him proud. My dad is the reason I started music and wanted to be in a band from a very young age, and although he isn’t here to hear this, I hope he would be proud of what me and the lads have become.”

Birmingham’s rusty metal and molten iron runs deep in the veins of STRAIGHT FOR THE SUN, the influence of BlackSabbathJudasPriest and NapalmDeath never more than a stone’s throw away from the alternative metal quintet. Mix that with the modern influence of ArchitectsSpiritbox, and While She Sleeps, and you have yourself the perfect concoction of riffs, breakdowns, and solos to suit any mood. As well as ‘Falling Away’, previous single ‘Pulling Teeth’ is the band’s first taste of new music in two years, taking an introspective deep dive into self-doubt and the build up of pressure, whereas their previous single ‘Walk’ tackled the perils of binge-drinking and deep-rooted alcoholism.

Stay tuned for more to come.
