Special Interest Share New Song, ‘Nothing Grows Here’

The track, lead singer Alli Logout, said is about "stagnancy, overstayed welcomes and the moment you decided to confront your complacency"

Special Interest have shared a new song, titled ‘Nothing Grows Here’.

Marking the first original material to emerge from the New Orleans group since the release of their 2022 album Endure, the song, lead singer Alli Logout said in a press statement, is about “stagnancy, overstayed welcomes and the moment you decided to confront your complacency”.

Developing the themes of the new cut further, she added: “It’s about opening yourself to feel the earth dying underneath your feet. How do we stand and what do we stand for? It’s a song about the reeling in this moment. The next step? A call to arms.”

You can watch a video for the song, made by the band’s guitarist Maria Elena, below.

‘Nothing Grows Here’ is out now.
