Bass Drum Of Death share new single & video “Find It”

Bass Drum Of Death have shared “Find It“, a new track taken from their forthcoming album, Say I Won’t, which is set to be released on January 27th via Fat Possum Records.

The new song finds bandleader John Barrett in a reflective mood, as he sings: “I know all the world around me’s crumbling/I’m left holding the bag and stumbling/Who knows, I might be the problem.” It’s a new, more sober perspective, with the added potency that comes from taking responsibility for one’s own life and problems.

‘Find It’ is kind of a cynical look at where I was in my life living in New York at the time” he comments. “Way too much partying, to where I realized it was my problem, not necessarily where I lived. I also wanted to do something different with the structure of the song, I’ve always loved the idea of starting with a chorus but have never done it until “Find It”.

Listen to “Find It” and watch the video for it below:

Say I Won’t, the band’s fifth record, comes at a time of massive change for Barrett, having relocated from New York to his hometown of Oxford, Mississippi during the pandemic. The record is also a homecoming of a different sort, with the band rejoining the ranks of Fat Possum, also in Oxford, the label that released their first record GB City in 2011.
