After twelve studio albums and several #1 chart positions in Finland, THE 69 EYES have no plans of slowing down. The band recently announced a massive European Fall tour from October through December 2022 and are also working on a new full-length studio release that will see the light of day in early 2023. In the meantime, the Helsinki Vampires allow no rest for the wicked and have unleashed a brand new single: âCall Me Snake.â Itâs a dark summer hit, mixing an â80s gothic vibe with hard rocking guitars. Imagine The Stooges meeting early Ministry and â90s horror movies, and a track that shines through its simplicity yet still offers crazy twists around every corner.
“Itâs 1997 in John Carpenterâs Escape From New York sci-fi classic and Kurt Russell as Snake Plissken saves the world,” comments vocalist Jyrki 69. “These are the thematic elements for âCall Me Snakeâ and the world will be saved again!”
Stream or download âCall Me Snakeâ at THIS LOCATION.
