Toronto’s Ducks Ltd. have shared a moody, slow-burning new song “Heavy Bag,” the fourth and final pre-release single from their forthcoming album Harm’s Way, out February 9, 2024 via Carpark Records.
“It’s about despair and the way that misery loves company. The way that when people are in a bad place they try to undermine the people who are down there with them. To keep them and hold them there. It’s an incredibly ugly impulse, but one that if I’m being honest I’ve caught myself indulging in the past,” explains singer/lyricist Tom McGreevy.
“We tried to do something we hadn’t done before on this one musically, and had to kind of reverse a lot of our instincts in building the arrangement. But it felt like what ultimately suited the song. Macie Stewart and Briar Darling ended up improvising a lot of the string layers at the end which had some really exciting results.”
“Heavy Bag” arrives on the heels of additional album tracks “Train Full of Gasoline,” “Hollowed Out,” and “The Main Thing”. Harm’s Way is available for pre-order HERE.
