Bush drops 'Flowers On A Grave' music video ahead of 'The Kingdom' album release
If you are a fan of the multi-platinum-selling band Bush, then you are in for a special treat. The band has just released a brand new music video for their song 'Flowers On A Grave', which will be part of their highly-anticipated album 'The Kingdom', which releases in the summer.
The hard-hitting hard rock chugger features soaring vocals from frontman Gavin Rossdale and some thrilling melodic riffs and thunderous rhythms from the rest of the band, who sound like they are in the best form of their lives at this point. 'Flowers On A Grave', co-produced by Erik Ron and Rossdale himself, is off to a great start at radio, having been on Active Rock Radio's 'Most Added New Track' list for the last two weeks in a row.
The official music video is a cinematic masterpiece that has been directed by Jesse Davey. It features an electrifying performance by the band, who are captured performing the powerful, pensive track indoors, fuelled by haunted-house mood lighting and some tricky theatrical effects.
What makes the video memorable is the fact that it has been shot in one single take, or at least it looks like it. There is no way the band members would have been able to teleport to different portions of the house as the roving camera makes its logic-defying way around the video set, without pausing for a breath.
The song too is a poignant stunner, with some great lyrics as Gavin Rossdale purrs in his trademark raspy voice, "I'm in a noose / The animals are on the move / Tell me what you're gonna do / I can see you coming through / Everyone all the time." The visual imagery in the song is stark and compelling as well. "She covered me in loneliness / Like flowers on a grave," Rossdale howls in the chorus.
The director of this video, Davey, is no stranger to Bush fans. He also directed the thrilling music video for the band's previous cinematic single 'Bullet Holes'. That song earned rave reviews from audiences all over the world when it was first heard over the end credits to the international blockbuster 'John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum'.
Both 'Bullet Holes' and this new song 'Flowers On A Grave' will be available on Bush's forthcoming album 'The Kingdom', which is scheduled to drop sometime in May 2020. So make sure you keep your eyes and ear peeled for more updates regarding its release.
