Glasgow-based rockers Honeyblood are back with "Babes Never Die", the monumental title track from their upcoming second LP.
"Babes Never Die" is a beguiling melange of stuttery axes and crashing percussion. It's endlessly melodic and full of infectious pop moments - that chorus is blinder and will surely soundtrack end-of-night singalongs up and down the country.
Frontwoman Stine Tweeddale says: "It was the starting point, the first track written. It's a song about not dying."
Babes Never Die is released 4 November via FatCat.
