LIZZY BORDEN PREVIEWS NEW SONG, “THE SCAR ACROSS MY HEART,” FROM FIRST ALBUM IN 11 YEARS

Lizzy Borden fans who simply cannot wait any longer to hear a sample of the new studio effort from one of theatrical metal’s top frontmen, Lizzy Borden, are in luck – The Scar Across My Heart (from the forthcoming full-length, My Midnight Things) can be heard below.

Borden says, “With The Scar Across My Heart, I wanted to explore those kinds of relationships that tattoo your soul. You’re forever linked to this person, even though it can never be for one reason or another. ‘We bury all our yesterdays and try and drink these scars away,’ I’m talking about a no-hope situation, a never-meant-to-be situation, but I’m still singing ‘We’re gonna make it now.’ I’m always looking for that human reaction no matter how delusional or unrealistic.”

Friday, June 15th will see the release of My Midnight Things, through Metal Blade Records, which can be pre-ordered in the following formats:

–limited 1st edition Digipak-CD (includes bonus tracks)

Having signed a new contract with Metal Blade on the strength of three demo tracks, Borden opted to produce My Midnight Things himself, with Joey Scott as co-producer, who also handled all the drumming duties. “I knew what I was going for and had doubts that I could find a producer who would understand that,” Borden explains. “My approach is very different than what is happening in today’s current sound.”
