Speak Low If You Speak Love unveils new track ‘Knots’

State Champs’ bassist Ryan Scott Graham unveiled his side project Speak Low If You Speak Love back in 2011 but now, ahead of the release of his remastered debut full-length, he’s unveiled one of its tracks.

Taken from his album ‘Everything But What You Need’, which is set to be re-released through his new label Pure Noise Records on 30th March, ‘Knots’ is a stripped-bare admission which sees Graham addressing his demons.

“Lyrically, there are a handful of underlying themes pulsing throughout ‘Knots’,” Ryan told DIY, of the track in question, “jealousy, stubbornness, insecurity, but I think the most important idea is the refusal to settle for less than your own happiness. All it takes is a conscious effort and some tenacity to change the course of your future.”

The track gets taken from his forthcoming full-length, which was born when Graham decided to take time away from his primary project as a means of therapy. “Speak Low was only ever intended to be a therapeutic process for me,” he admitted. “I wrote songs to chain certain feelings and ideas to the past in hopes that they’d stay there.”

‘Everything But What You Need’ will be released on 30th March through Pure Noise Records. The tracklisting is as follows.

1. Art School
2. Knots
3. Eight Weeks
4. A List Of Things
5. Ruined
