“Bloodlines draws inspiration from the things passed down through our lineage – not just physical traits but intergenerational trauma, mental illness, strengths and resilience,” the pair say. “The song delves into the secrets our bodies hold and asks the question is society’s current epidemic of depression generic or genetic.”
The new single is the first piece of music to be taken from their upcoming album, which the band have been working on in the studio recently and which will be released in 2025.
