We recently had the stellar opportunity to check out the new single and video for “I’m Not Dying To Be Here, from Bristol (Uk ) , 5 piece band Split Chain. You can listen to “I’m Not Dying To Be Here” – Here and you can check out the video directed by Zak Pinchin below.

Split Chain ( vocalist Roberto Martinez-Cowles, guitarists Oli Bowles and Jake Reid, bassist Tom Davies and drummer Aaron Black) deliver an absolutely melodic and sonic triumph with “I’m Not Dying To Be Here”

Following acclaim from outlets like Revolver, who lauded their “super catchy nu-gaze sound”, the Bristol five-piece returns with another wave of roaring, hypnotic riffs and melancholy grooves. Paired with gritty, emotional vocals and the lyrical content to match, the band explains that the song is “a raw and honest reflection on the courage it takes to choose yourself, even when it means walking away from someone you once trusted.” 

Split Chain , offer up an unapologetic and authentic sound that surrounds your senses and leaves you wanting more. We have a feeling that they are just getting warmed up.

Split Chain formed almost 2 years ago as a creative outlet for its members who were all facing different stages of addiction recovery at the time. By channeling their personal struggles into emotionally charged songs, they have connected with a growing fan base drawn to their vulnerability and honesty. “We were writing music as an escape, a  distraction, to create what we wanted to listen to,” they explain.“We ended up loving what we had created so much, and from this, Split Chain was formed.”

The band is currently on tour in the U.S. with Silverstein and Thursday you can check out dates below
