It is no secret that we have been obsessed with the incredible releases from Chucky Trading Co this year, including Tonight We Will Live Forever, What I Want, Psychopath Cool, Grace and Your Freedom, so naturally when we heard that they had released, The Scars of Our War, we were extremely excited to experience it!
Enticing us with their signature acoustic guitar, played masterfully and with intricate depth, The Scars of Our War opens with a cinematic energy that immediately delivers an introspective vibe.
The lyricism is metaphorical as the duo share the emotionally situational prose, “I can feel your ghost come nearer, I can see your face in the mirror, I don’t know if love can reach from the grave…”
Artists CS Taber and Everett Young confess that the opus is “a spooky story of love and war!”, themed around “what happens when love reaches back from the grave.”
We can always count on Chucky Trading Co for a unique narrative and The Scars of Our War is no exception. Laced with high concept and visual imagery in the story, we fall deeper in love with the minds of CS Taber and Everett Young as they create a cohesively and cerebral tapestry that has us in awe.
The chorus holds a powerful message with the profound lyrics, “I carry the guilt of the living, and you carry three times more, I bear the weight of forgiving, and you bear the scars of our war…”
The Scars of Our War has been added to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream Chucky Trading Co‘s wider discography!
