Royal Blood have unveiled their new single Pull Me Through. The new track previews Royal Blood’s fourth album Back To The Water Below which follows a week earlier than previously stated on September 1. Pull Me Through comes in the wake of breakout single Mountains At Midnight.
Since then, Royal Blood have hit stadiums across Europe as special guests to Muse and played a triumphant Glastonbury set in the penultimate Pyramid stage slot to headliners Arctic Monkeys, while the pre-order for the stunning zoetrope vinyl edition of the album saw all 4000 copies swiftly snapped up.
Pull Me Through is indicative of the broader palette of sounds that Royal Blood explore throughout Back To The Water Below. A step apart from anything they have previously released, the song builds upwards from its initial melancholic piano melody before erupted with a full-blooded denouement that ensures this stylistic shift is still resolutely Royal Blood. Themes of guilt and recrimination lurk ominously in Mike Kerr’s words, notably with the arresting lyric, “On a bed made of ‘What have you done?’”
