Pacific Northwestern gothic rockers Unto Others have their third album Never, Neverland coming out next month and as a result, they dropped a new single and accompanying music video today titled “Momma Likes the Door Closed.”
Featuring a more traditional heavy metal sound mixed with some doomy vocals, “Momma Likes the Door Closed” fuckin’ moves, man. It’s got riffs for days, the solos are great, and honestly… it’s just fun in the best way possible.
Speaking of the track, Unto Others vocalist Gabriel Franco said the song and video are purposely made to feel like a kinda cheesy 80s horror movie.
“Honestly surprised I wasn’t high when putting this together, cause it’s a weird one. With elements of punk/thrash/hardcore/post punk/goth and metal, ‘Momma Likes The Door Closed’ is our attempt to recreate an 80s B-movie horror flick in musical format. Brock knocked it out of the park with the video, which must be watched with the song for the full experience. Shadows dance across the floor, don’t you ever open up the door!!”
Never, Neverland will be released on September 20 via Century Media, but you can preorder your copy today. The band also has a long list of tour dates coming up later this year, so you can check out when and where they’ll be and plan accordingly if you’d like to catch ’em live.
