VENDETTA LOVE ‘WALK ALONE’
NEW SINGLE OUT 30/8/24
Vendetta Love are a hard hitting, solid force of no bullshit, hard rock & grunge from Ireland. They combine the anthemic brooding darkness of Seattle grunge, with the danger and excitement of LA’s Sunset Strip. Having multiple headline shows under their belt as well as coveted support slots alongside Airbourne, Poets of the Fall and even TikTok sensations Adam & The Metal Hawks they are no strangers to the stage. They released two 5 track EPs in 2021 & 2022 respectively with 3 singles in 2023.
The band released ‘Soothe’, and ‘Glue’ their first singles of 2024, and they both surpassed all expectations receiving unprecedented airplay across the globe alongside some excellent reviews, elevating their platform as a band and increasing their visibility. Whilst the band are in pre-production mode they are re-releasing the single ‘Walk Alone’, alongside a brand new ‘almost’ acoustic version of it, to build on the success of the previous tracks!
‘Walk Alone’ will be re-released 30/8/24
at 00:00 GMT across all streaming platforms.

“Walk Alone was actually one of the quickest songs I’ve ever written. I think it took about 15 mins and then I brought it to the boys later that evening and that was it done within an hour. One of those rare happenings when you just start writing and it writes itself. It explores the relationship between desolation and desperate hope through the medium of substance abuse, not having anywhere to go that you can call your safe place, and the tiny little hole in the ceiling where light comes through, but you’re not sure whether you’ll be able to reach it or not. All you have to do is look around you anytime you walk almost anywhere in this country. People aren’t happy, aren’t thriving. We’ve got the biggest housing crisis in living memory and the divide between the so called ‘classes’ is growing and growing. What we’re seeing and feeling is the result, so that definitely bore it’s way into my psyche when I was writing it. On the flip side of that, on a more personal level, a close relative had been destroying his mother and siblings with his drug use, someone who I’d watched closely since they were a baby. I was at the beginning of the end of a pretty tumultuous relationship all while trying to keep my own use and abuse under wraps from most people around me so I was kinda living in this vacuum of shit, like a feeling of homelessness anywhere I would normally consider ‘home’, so whatever words happened, whatever way the song is structured, it’s all of that…it was a ‘fucky’ thing. I guess it has a meaning beneath a meaning.”
