Freeroad - 'Do What You Feel!' (official music video)

Lately you’ve been so diffused
You’ve been a fool and so bemused
you gotta give a damn of what they say
Or you’ll be paying dues
You are a dreamer, you got the feeling
So do it now before it’s to late
Though it seems everything’s against you
Stay strong do not lose your way

Take the impulse take control
It's time to do it your way, take it!
Keep the essence of your heart

Do what...
Do what you feel, no matter what they say
Do what you feel
Do what...
do what you feel!
Do not make it harder
Life itself is hard enough
Fill your desires doing what you love the most
Don’t let the anguish drag you down by your feet
Run you better run away
Before it ends with your soul

Take the impulse take control
It's time to do it your way, take it!
Keep the essence of your heart

Do what...
Do what you feel, no matter what they say
Do what you feel
Do what...
do what you feel!
FEEL IT!

Lately you’ve been so amused
Ignoring things that you couldn’t refuse
Now you see clearly that freedom was
The whole time on your own hands
You’re on the right path, just keep it like that
Flow like a river to a better way
Follow your feel and keep it clean
Until you make it a reality

Take the impulse take control
It's time to do it your way, take it!
Keep the essence of your heart

Do what...
Do what you feel, no matter what they say
Do what you feel
Do what...
do what you feel!

Οι Freeroad μας έρχονται από το Μεξικό. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ τετραετίας, χαρακτηρίζουν την μουσική τους ως «Heavy / rock 80s NWOBHM style» και είναι πανέτοιμοι για την κυκλοφορία του πρώτου "ολοκληρωμένου" τους δίσκου. Τιτλοφορείται "Do What You Feel!" και έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει στα τέλη του πρώτου μήνα του νέου έτους...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Dying Victims Productions is proud to present Freeroad’s striking debut album, Do What You Feel!, on CD and vinyl LP formats. Hailing from Monterrey, Mexico, Freeroad formed in 2018 with only the goal of making music for the love of making music.

The moniker Freeroad was thus chosen to symbolize the idea that there’s no boundaries in music; genres don’t really matter, as long as they’re keeping the essence of old-school rock ‘n’ roll. For Freeroad, that essence is largely built up on the classic sounds of the ‘70s and ‘80s - be it UFO, Thin Lizzy, Yes, Rush, or Jeff Beck - as well as the early rocking sounds of the NWOBHM.

Armed with such a noble ‘n’ rustic foundation, Freeroad proceed to make their bolt-from-the-blue first statement with Do What You Feel! Ever aptly titled, Do What You Feel! indeed finds the quartet ranging those aforementioned sounds and styles with almost alchemical ease. Heartfelt, honest, and homemade, Freeroad’s hot-rockin’ harkens to an era where immediately immersive hooks, loose-yet-locked-in ensemble playing, and earthy dynamics were king.

Thus, it’s not disingenuous to suggest that there’s a certain déjà vu here; you might’ve heard these songs before, in a nostalgic alternate reality or two removed, but they had yet to be written. Such is the wondrous and endearingly celebratory magick at work across Do What You Feel!, as each of these nine anthems-in-waiting work their spell: each one different than the last, but definitely all the work of the same band.

Again, the album experience as one that’s narrative in its variety - truly, Freeroad are a band out of time. Pleasures that are simple but utterly sublime, there’s no over-thinking needed or fancy words necessary when approaching the gritty glory of Freeroad. Just like its cover cheekily displays, you’ll feel compelled to Do What You Feel!»
