Sicksense, the nü-metal outfit co-fronted by now former The Agonist vocalist Vicky Psarakis and Robby J. Fonts of Stuck Mojo fame, have premiered their new single “Feed Them To The Wolves“. It is the second single to receive a release from the band’s new EP “Fools Tomorrow“, due out June 11th.
A music video for this latest track is available for viewing below. Psarakis, who goes by the name of Killer V in the outfit, commented:
“‘Feed Them To The Wolves‘ is a multifaceted song. The lyrics were written collaboratively between Rob and I, which led to that beautiful contrast.
My inspiration and emotional connection to it came from my own life as a musician. Being in this industry, there’s this constant feeling that what you’re doing is never enough. From the music you’re creating to the content and interactions you have with others over social media, you’re often left feeling drained and your efforts unappreciated.
In current times, people always crave more and some fans develop these parasocial relationships in their minds that come with a strong sense of entitlement. You do one thing they don’t like; you’re criticized, you say one thing they don’t like; you’re crucified, you create music that’s different from what they’re used to; you’re abandoned.
All these things can cripple you emotionally and make you feel like a puppet to your audience, as you’re always trying to appease them. However, the strings are imaginary. At the end of the day what you choose to do should be your own decision. As long as you’re able to connect with and impact some people’s lives positively, what you’re doing is enough. Opening your arms to the world is a scary feeling, but every beautiful thing that comes with it is ultimately worth it.”
