‘Sever the Ties’ by Fools & Sages is a powerful track full of passion and pizzazz. It’s the band’s fifth release and adds perfectly to their catalogue.
Fools & Sages – Sever the Ties
Coming out of Derbyshire, Fools & Sages are a transformative rock band with a talent for wonderful production, transcending sound and breathtaking visuals. Their fourth single, ‘Ascend With Me’, was previously reviewed, with the highest praise possible.
Their newest release, ‘Sever the Ties’, kicks off with a thrashing, metal-infused attack. The vocals pierce through the heart of the listener. A controlled chaos ensues. The verse builds perfectly. The title lyrics are ferociously delivered each time.
The midway breakdown is full to the brim with rage and beauty. Pure emotion and insane vocal control encapsulate the listener. The song is more direct in its sound, and intentionally so, than their previous releases. Fools & Sages deliver a real blow with this intense display of musical talent.
Although the atmosphere is intense, Fools & Sages pride themselves on being able to tell a story with their art. Each release is carefully crafted to impact those who come across it. Their image is meticulously crafted around their sound.
Every release is paired carefully with an array of stunning outfit choices. The ‘Sever the Ties’ artwork is a classic image of a woman keying a car. It is inspired by Carrie Underwood’s classic ‘Before He Cheats’. The imagery pairs superbly with the message of the song. It is almost impossible not to get lost in the visual and audio world that Fools & Sages create.
Fools & Sages continue to reinvent their sound, find themselves and produce spectacular music. Their journey is special, and their rise is imminent.
