Welcome to Singled Out! where we ask artists to tell us the inside story of their latest single. Today Lo-Pro frontman Pete Murray tells us about "Alive" from their brand new album "The Beautiful Sounds of Revenge". We now turn it over to Pete for the story:'The Beautiful Sounds of Revenge' is truly a diary of our journey over the last several years. Following the demise of our last record deal, we went through a "12 step program" of sorts emotionally. The first step was naturally anger, followed by despair and depression. These emotions are tiring though and not all that healthy over time and we eventually returned to this magical place of making music for the sake of making music.
At the end of the day, we'll always have our music, despite where we may be on a business level at the time. I think "Alive" marked the beginning of that transition. The lyrics are upbeat and hopeful. "Let them know you're alive" is a call to action. Life is too short for bitterness.
Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album - right here!
