Candlebox released a new song called “Let Me Down Easy”, their first new song since 2016. The song is about the us all being sinners and that hopefully you will be lucky enough to be forgiven for your sins and allowed into the gates of heaven because you are aware, that is… if that’s what you believe in, according to lead singer Kevin Martin.
The song was written by frontmanKevin Martin and Peter Cornell, brother of the late Chris Cornell. Martin said:
“Peter Cornell and I had been chatting about doing something together and he sent me the song. I really loved writing this one with Peter. He’s incredibly talented and has an innate ability to produce something that is easy to sing to… I really loved this process with him. I think it’s an amazing song. We put it together as a full band in pre-production pretty quickly because it was so well-structured, which in turn allowed/inspired me to write the lyrics.”
“Let Me Down Easy” will be on Candlebox’s recently completed new full-length, which is currently untitled.
