HIMALAYAS have released their brand new song ‘Nothing Higher’.
The new song is an expansive rock track playing like a fine pairing of Muse and Death From Above 1979. Wide-reaching pensive vocals explore human connection among the bold riffs and driving rhythm which have been crafted alongside a raft of atmospheric space including creepy extended guitar notes and haunting harmonies.
Regarding the single songwriter and lead guitarist Mike Griffiths says, “‘Nothing Higher’ discusses the personal struggle to find meaning against the backdrop of a chaotic and unsympathetic world, however it also offers some respite to this through love and hope.
The two distinct parts of the song begin with a sense of uncertainty and chaos which falls away to suggest that something simpler and more hopeful may still be possible through human connection.”
HIMALAYAS are on a dizzying upward trajectory since the release of their debut album From Hell To Here in 2023, which quickly proved them to be a vital new band in the UK rock scene.
It has achieved over 93 million streams and led them to work with the very upper echelons of rock royalty, including co-writing with AC/DC’s Brian Johnson on the recent single ‘V.O.V’, while also being asked to support Foo Fighters at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium earlier this summer.
HIMALAYAS are no strangers to big stages, and prior to supporting Foo Fighters they have performed to capacity arena crowds with Manic Street Preachers and Stereophonics.
Last Saturday the band were also seen at Cardiff Arena supporting Those Damn Crows. The show followed their recent run across the UK with Kids In Glass Houses last month.
Looking ahead to next year, HIMALAYAS have just been announced in the first wave of artists for SXSW 2025 in Austin, Texas. Fans can expect more touring news from HIMALAYAS to follow soon.
