Alternative metal band Butcher Babies have released their new single “Lost In Your Touch“. That track was produced by Howard Benson (In Flames, My Chemical Romance), who also co-founded the group’s current label home of Judge & Jury Records. This track drew lyrical inspiration from past heartbreak endured by the band’s vocalist Heidi Shepherd, as she stated:
“10 years ago, I watched the love of my life fall in love with someone else. I watched him fill my shoes with another girl’s touch. She slowly took my place in the late-night phone calls and early morning coffee. He replaced ‘us’ with her name on his lips. I bent between this new reality and the past that my body and heart so desperately wanted back.
As I watched this unfold, I couldn’t help but wonder if they shared the same, deep emotional bond we once shared, and if ‘she gets lost in his touch like I do. This song brings me back to those heartbreaking moments alone; reflecting, growing, and finding myself again. I don’t take a love like that for granted now. It’s special, and deserves to be put on a pedestal.
Recording this song with Howard was really special. From the get-go, he understood the emotion and story behind the lyrics. We both knew this song was going to be special, and treated it with the emotional sensitivity needed to not just hear the song, but to feel it.”
Shepherd also directed the below music video for this song.
