In 2009, British-born rock band The Heavy burst onto the scene with their hit song “How You Like Me Now?“
Videos by American Songwriter
The track was the third single from their sophomore album, The House That Dirt Built. It charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and made the band popular amongst music fans who like to shake, rattle and roll.
Today, American Songwriter is premiering the latest music video for The Heavy’s new single “I Feel the Love.” The band, which formed in 2007, is known for its relentless energy. The new LP, AMEN, is set to drop on April 21.
The band’s new song, “I Feel The Love,” rollicks with Pentecostal-pop energy, rich with Mississippi heat. The video, which was filmed in Bath in the U.K., is directed by a long-time friend of the band, Tim Walter.
“The world feels as if it’s burning down at times and that it’s being torn apart by divisive agendas and evil personality traits,” the group’s frontman Kelvin Swaby says speaking about the new single. “This is a solid reminder that as challenging as that is and may feel from day to day, we feel and will always believe, in Love. Always and forever.”
To date, The Heavy has provided the main theme song to the March Madness 2016 broadcast, soundtracked Super Bowl commercials and video games, and made history as the very first band to get an encore demand from Letterman, on The Late Show.
