Die aus Worcester stammende Punkrock-Band Fights And Fires veröffentlicht heute mit „Pocket Full Of Flowers“ einen neuen Song via Lockjaw Records. Der Track führt die Geschichte von Sänger Philip Cox‘ Erfahrungen in Sachen Liebe, Glück, Verlust und Neuanfängen fort, die auch über die Jahre immer wieder immer wieder in das Storytelling der Band einfloss. Musikalisch wird es mit dem neuen Song melodisch. Philip Cox kommentiert die Single:
“The song is about the naivety of love, and how focused we can be on it cement our happiness. I was in the process of getting a divorce and couldn’t help but feel detached from the whole situation.
When we are children we crave for our parents love, and as adults we seek that in a partner. So, just as a token gift of a flower to a mother is put in a pocket to wilt away, a wedding ring can too end up in a sock draw wasting away.
For the first time in my adult life I felt like I could start again and build a new better version of me.”
