Beloved and influential Los Angeles trio Failure – Ken Andrews, Greg Edwards, and Kellii Scott – recently announced their seventh studio album Location Lost, out April 24th via Failure Records/Arduous Records/Virgin Music Group. The LP features nine new tracks that showcase a focused, modern and ever-evolving vision of Failure’s utterly unique sound. Today, they share the latest single from the album, “A Way Down” – a goth-influenced gem inspired by some of the genre's icons. Listen to “A Way Down” HERE and watch the official lyric video HERE.

"Musically speaking, ‘A Way Down’ is an homage to two bands who actually got me to pick up the guitar and try to write my own music: The Cure and Siouxsie & The Banshees, specifically their early 80s periods with albums like Juju and Pornography,” notes Andrews. “I was captured by the angular guitar approach and the unapologetic dark atmospheres that dripped off those records. Lyrically, ‘A Way Down’ is another study in miscommunication and the resulting loneliness it often brings. No silver linings here.”
