This powerful classic rock song “Darkness In Your Eyes” from Liverpool rock band The Heavy North, is one of the best songs we’ve heard recently! The energy of this song is amazing and the production is polished and sounds very professional. The bass is great and the guitars and drums are amazing! The vocalist has one of the richest voices we’ve ever heard and his performance on this track is more than professional. The atmosphere of this track is unique, the lyrics are original and well written and mesh with the lyrics perfectly. We hope you love this track as much as we do!
WHAT THE BAND SAYS ABOUT THIS SONG:
“Darkness In Your Eyes is about recognising desperation in someone and trusting your instincts when you know someone isn’t being themselves, or something isn’t right and they’re trying to hide it. The lyrics touch on themes of loneliness and it’s about people craving intimacy and affection, often in the wrong places and from the wrong people” .
