video premiere: check out down north’s anti-valentines day singles celebration of-a-video ‘to hell with love’
Oh, to be young and to feel love’s keen sting, a wise wizard once said. Alternative soul rockers Down North’s anti-Valentine’s Day single ‘tO heLL WitH LoVe’ pokes much fun at the sheer ridiculousness that is so much of dating, cupid’s cruelty, and being content as a single and celebrating everything that comes with that. “I always wanted to write an anti love song, a song that celebrated being single and being ok with it,” Anthony Briscoe tells AFROPUNK
‘tO heLL WitH LoVe’ is a boisterous,full-throttle alt. rock track guaranteed to get you on your feet—single or (barf) otherwise.
