Following Golden Woman, Get My Things And Go serves as the second taster of the Canadian band's next album. Arriving hot on the heels of their main stage appearance at the UK's Download festival, the swampy, blues-rock track features a fiery solo from guest Chris Robertson of Black Stone Cherry.
Monster Truck bassist and singer Jon Harvey said:
"The lyrics for Get My Things And Go are a fictional story of betrayal and freedom. I think a lot of people wait until something pivotal happens, like infidelity, to address the issues of their happiness. These lyrics are about reaching that breaking point, starting the engine, and putting that foot on the floor, forgetting about everyone else for the sake of sanity. I’m sure all of us can relate."
"The music was written by Jer, who was jamming the main riff when I walked in one day and he was just miles deep in his groove pocket. I bet he’d been playing it for hours, in fact, it was so groovy it felt like he’d been in there for days! I thought, 'damn I better write some words and a melody worthy of this delicious jam', and it seems as though we were on the exact same page."
Earlier in June, the rockers announced a headline UK tour for the autumn, with support from Welsh band Those Damn Crows. Tickets are on sale now.
