‘Not Sorry’, the scalding new single from Pistols At Dawn, sees the Atlanta based quartet at their most gentle, their most ferocious, their most uncompromising, and their most welcoming. They’re tuneful and rhythmic, consonant and distorted. They’re everything everywhere, all at once.
‘Not Sorry’ sees Pistols At Dawn perfect the sound they’ve been developing over the past 2 years; they’re a hard rock band who are as skilled as any pop group at coming up with melodies, while being as confessional, upfront, and sincere as any folkie, as well as eclectic and ambitious as an experimental outfit. ‘Not Sorry’ sees them fully realise their vision, and the song hits hard with considerable force, while remaining catchy enough to find its way to a radio playlist.
With verses driven by high string bass, rock solid beats, and piping hot lead guitar, ‘Not Sorry’ is spiked with synths, samples, and snarling electronic effects, and the chorus is not just powerfully sung, but it’s also instantly memorable.
The power that Pistols At Dawn bring to their live shows is replicated perfectly in the music video for ‘Not Sorry’. Directed by Michael Levine, it captures their strength and ferocity in a moody, artful, and haunting fashion. They’re positioned on a shadowed set, where they just let rip, turning their instruments into weapons to fight against any darkness.
