The Whiskey Knights struck all the right nerves with their latest single, Time. The Surrey-hailing hard rock revenant outfit deconstructed the concept of time with their latest tour de force by exploring its relentless grip on our mortal coil, its power to strip away memories, and its refusal to guarantee change or healing.
From the solid rhythm section and baying guitars to the electrifying vocal performance, Time showcases The Whiskey Knights as a formidable triple threat. The track’s grungy undertones amplify the intensity of the universally relatable emotions, creating an immersive experience that is as visceral as it is compelling. There’s no room for nostalgia here; The Whiskey Knights are reviving the reasons we fell in love with rock – its ability to translate the rawest facets of the human experience into pulsating furore.
Having formed in 2013 and hailing from Camberley, Surrey, The Whiskey Knights have built a diverse discography, including two studio albums, one EP, a live album, and a demo. Their sound, a mixture of hard rock, punk rock, indie rock, and pop rock, continues to evolve, with Time testifying to their chameleonic songwriting chops.
If Time hits this hard on the airwaves, brace yourself for the colossal impact when you see The Whiskey Knights perform the single that solidifies their place in the hard rock pantheon.
Time will officially drop on July 19; stream the single on Spotify and Bandcamp.
