McCully/Mackay reveal title track for their forthcoming second album
Progrock
duo McCully/Mackay are proud to announce The Garden of the Snake, their
new single and title track for their forthcoming second album.
Darker both musically and lyrically than their previous works, the track explores themes of exploitation, manipulation and corruption inspired by familiar myths and parables as well as the modern landscape of our ever-increasingly authoritarian world.
“There’s an increasing number of laws and encroachment on individuals” says Tully. “Levels of ever-growing red tape are suffocating creativity and expression. It’s a system that benefits the wealthy and powerful, who can buy their own justice.”
The band are known for their bold instrumentation and continue to push their skills with their new material. Along with the signature synth and guitar sounds, Garden of the Snake heightens the eerie atmosphere with a violin solo.
"Tully was hinting at me playing some electric violin on this track", says Gordon, "and as the snake is often synonymous with Eastern Culture I decided to introduce some "Eastern" fiddle parts to the song".
Coupled with Tully's driving rhythm section, the result is all at once hypnotic, unsettling and arresting.
The single is out 14 July 2023 on all streaming platforms.
