SICK PUPPES Share Music Video For New Single 'Going Places'
September 13, 2024Since bursting on to the music scene in the early 2000s, SICK PUPPIES — Bryan Scott (guitars/lead vocals),Emma Anzai (bass/vocals) and Mark Goodwin (drums/vocals) — have sold over one million albums, including a gold certification for "Tri-Polar", had five rock radio hits, including "You're Going Down", which reached No. 1, amassed over 310 million global streams, and have had their music featured on hits shows like "NCIS" and WWE. The band kicked off the next era of its career by partnering with ONErpm for its next album, "Wave The Bull", which arrives in early 2025.
Today, the band has shared the video for "Going Places". Watch it below.
Overall, the accompanying track and video are about just letting go of everything and frankly, not giving a damn.
"'Going Places' is a song about feeling stuck in life and basically fed up with it all," Anzai states. "The video we shot is a good representation of throwing our hands up in the air, letting go of everything, and feeling a release from the malaise and just having fun."
It follows the video for the first single "There Goes The Neighborhood", which can also be seen below.
"We are all familiar with what it means to 'take the bull by the horns,' but to 'wave the bull' is a different take on approaching life's most difficult times," the band states. "To wave the bull is to provoke, embrace, and surrender to the battles that will inevitably scar us — a battle cry for the emotional masochist. Antagonizing adversity, afraid of nothing," the band declares. "This is the central theme, and philosophy behind our fifth studio album, 'Wave The Bull', as we reflected on the thick skin grown from the trials, and tribulations of our band's history and hardships, both professionally and personally."
SICK PUPPIES continue: "Coded by a colored guide, this aggressive concept album genre-hops between three lyrical themes — 'The Omen Tracks' (themed in black),which foreshadow the hard times to come, with lyrical content ranging from frustration, betrayal, and panic. 'The Fight Tracks' (themed in red) represent relentless, animalistic tenacity leaning all the way into hardship. And 'The Aftermath Tracks' (themed in white) that express the mixed bag of emotion that comes with being on the other side of disaster. This concept album is a collection of songs that thematically, lyrically, musically, and sonically double down on the narrative that it’s not about what life throws at you, it's about the way in which you face it So, 'Wave The Bull'!"
