New Music | We Were Promised Jetpacks - Safety In Numbers
[T]hey may not yet have attained their professed mode of aerial transportation but ever since We Were Promised Jetpacks released their debut album, These Four Walls, back in 2009, their trajectory has been continuously skyward. The now five-piece Scottish rockers – with the addition of multi-instrumentalist Stuart McGachan – are readying their third album, Unravelling, for release this Fall, and we are happy to share with you the first single “Safety In Numbers.”
If this new song is any indication of what the rest of the forthcoming album sounds like we are in for a helluva good time! “Safety In Numbers” is made for blasting off arena walls with its pounding drums and soaring guitars, and as these guys are touring machines it’s a safe bet that will indeed happen one of these days. Speaking of touring they hit the road again this October to promote Unravelling and they have a stop here in Boston on November 20th. I have seen them live numerous times and can say with all honesty this will be a show you won’t want to miss.
Until then enjoy “Safety In Numbers” and then spend the rest of the day listening to their previous two albums. We’ll have more on WWPJ as the release date draws near.
