After a long run of touring and recording Safetysuit have returned with their music video for their single "Get Around This," the striking first single off of their upcoming and yet-to-be titled sophomore album. The Nashville-based pop-rock band have crafted the kind of record that has a stadium-sized hook around every corner.Anything and everything about this melodic rockers from from Tulsa, Oklahoma can be summed up by the band's name. "I think the key word is 'safety,'" explains the lead vocalist/guitarist Doug Brown. "The four of us in the band have been friends forever. We feel comfortable around each other. We’re in a safe environment and that makes us feel free to be who we are. And, if we can inspire that moment or that feeling in our fans, we've succeeded."
Safetysuit write the most groundbreaking, intricate art that shakes the very foundation of modern music. The rockers has spent almost three years recording their second major label release, even taking extra time to find the right balance between the sound of the band's debut album, "Life Left To Go" and a matured sound that represents where the band is at today, all to avoid the dreaded sophomore slump the plagues so many band's in Safetysuit's position. The record is expected to be released later this year, and there's little doubt that the young combo will find further success on modern rock radio.
"Get Around This" is an engaging anthem about a relationship gone wrong constructed on an unforgettable hook and breathtaking instrumentation. The video for "Get Around This" features the band performing on top of flotsam and rescuing people lost at sea. Safetysuit have made a pure pop gem with "Get Around This," and as for the sound of the new album, they felt very strongly that the album has to represent a sound that's true to them and not synthesized or fabricated. The new release is bound to be one of the best releases of 2011. Safetysuit make songs you'll wear forever.
