Hot Snakes have released a video for their latest single I Shall Be Free.
It follows the single Checkmate, which the band released at the end of 2019, and is the second instalment of a limited edition 7" single release campaign the band are running in the run up to their as yet untitled forthcoming album.
A statement on the track describes it as "defiant anti-work protest punque. The slash-your-face chords and bassless undertow channels an AC/DC-Cramps hybrid that completely misses the mark. Primo Hot Snakes."
The band have also launched a video for the single, directed and animated by Tiger Reis, the son of Hot Snakes guitarist John Reis. You can see it in full below.
I Shall Be Free, which is available on digital streaming platforms, will also be available as a limited-edition 7-inch at the band's gigs. The disc will also include an exclusive B-side in the shape of A Place In The Sun.
Hot Snakes head out on tour later this month. See the bottom of the page for full dates.
