CNTS (Dead Cross, Retox, etc.) launched their new album “Thoughts & Prayers” today, March 29th. Arriving around its release is the below music video for the title track. Vocalist Matt Cronk offered:
“‘Thoughts And Prayers‘ was inspired by a bad day I was having during recuperation after my accident and subsequent surgeries. I was angry and in a lot of pain, struggling to get through the day while not exacerbating my injuries. In the U.S., ‘thoughts and prayers,’ is a common, banal response to tragedies. Whenever someone shoots up a school or an airplane crashes into a shopping mall or an entire city overdoses on fentanyl, pundits and politicians flock to the cameras and social media with, ‘our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families…’ It’s stupid and insulting.”
The accident referenced above was a car accident that seriously damaged Cronk‘s vocal cords, leaving him without a voice for several weeks.
