Blue October releases new song Sideways

October 11, 2023

Blue October are gearing up for the release of their new album, Spinning The Truth Around II which is set for October 13th, 2023. We have been in high anticipation for it and today we are enjoying the latest single release, Sideways. This song is definitely going to have a permanent spot on my playlist!  I love the raw vulnerability that Justin brings to life with his songs. It is as if he is in our head pulling out our exact thoughts and feelings, allowing us to not feel so alone with it. The guitars in it are absolutely stellar and I can only imagine how awesome it would be live!  It has some of my favorite lyrics as well:   We created a whole world where we kept ignoring exactly how we felt So don’t let the music die Don’t let it bring you down, keep roaring Say exactly how you feel when everything’s sideways When everything’s sideways   Check out the song and get ready for the new album!
