Grammy winning songwriter, platinum solo artist, and voice of Creed, Scott Stapp, has released the bombastically ominous “Deadman’s Trigger” as the fourth single from his upcoming solo album, Higher Power. The album is set for release on March 15 via Napalm Records.
On an album of metamorphosis forged by loss, frustration, betrayal and near defeat, “Deadman’s Trigger” warns of mutually assured destruction when pushed to the breaking point, until the melodic chorus arrives like salvation. The charged-up banger strobes with bold sonic swagger as one of the album’s hardest-hitting tracks.
Watch the lyric video below:
Higher Power describes a metamorphosis forged by loss, frustration, betrayal and near defeat. It features stand-out performances by Dorothy, guitar god Yiannis Papadopoulos, and a co-writing appearance by multi-Grammy winning songwriter and musician Steve McEwan.
