SAN DEIGO’S AWARD-WINNING BAND TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE
On 18th March, 2013, San Diego’s The Burning of Rome will release their new single, ‘Norman Bates’, on Surfdog/Membran Records.
With the life and times of Alfred Hitchcock currently in the spotlight, ‘Norman Bates' is a timely release from the winners of the ‘Best Alternative’ accolade at the 2012 San Diego Music Awards.
The Burning of Rome’s lead vocalist & keyboard player, Adam Traub, said of the single, “Quite literally, this song portraits the schizophrenic meltdown of Hitchcockian character Norman Bates. He consciously sees motel guest Marian Crane as a damsel in distress; however, internal rants he hears from his deceased mother are brewing darker plots for the mislaid maiden.”
„Norman Bates' is accompanied by a suitably creepy video, expertly directed by Patrick Fogarty. (Click here to watch the video: http://youtu.be/6TUMMue3YgI)
Taken from the band’s forthcoming album, ‘With Us’, The Burning of Rome are looking to build on the success of the their last single, ‘Cowboys & Cut Cigars’, which enjoyed support at XFM, Q Radio and Bloodstock Radio.
Recorded in LA at EastWest studios and produced by Adam Traub and Grammy Award winner Tom Biller, ‘With Us’, is released on 25th March, 2013.
