Flyleaf chat to I Like Music
Texas-bred quintet Flyleaf - vocalist/lyricist Lacey Mosley, guitarists Sameer Bhattacharya and Jared Hartmann, bassist Pat Seals and drummer James Culpepper - have been winning over crowds with their brooding beats, atmospheric textures and lunging riffs, complemented by Mosley's emotionally-charged vocals, which range from breathy and beautiful to scathing and aggressive.
Their debut album is a roller coaster of emotions filled with songs about abuse, neglect, addiction, dysfunction, and overcoming adversity. I Like Music caught up with Lacey from FLYLEAF to talk about touring with Korn, the new single, I'm So Sick and why their music is filled with hope.
"I Like Music because… life is beautiful not just functional and music represents something beautiful, all the different colours of life. You can understand an emotion without having to have words, just through the music. We want our music to be a like backdrop to the message." LACEY, FLYLEAF
ILM: The new single I'm So Sick is out now. Please describe the track and its whole vibe?
LACEY: It's a heavy rock song. The idea of it is like an urgent confession in a way. How this world can be a sick and messed up place and then the only way that changes is if we recognize what's sick and messed up about ourselves and try to make things better for the people around us, otherwise it's just going to keep going.
