Hot Press Track of the Day: The New 52's 'Accidents & Emergencies'

Music
21 Mar 18

‘Accidents & Emergencies’ is the new single from Dublin quartet THE NEW 52. Written by frontman Darragh Cullen following an anxiety related seizure which landed him in hospital, the song features on the new EP GREEN, which is out on March 30.

Singer Darragh Cullen explains: “I wrote the song following a seizure I suffered in 2016, a particularly harrowing anxiety incident which landed me in hospital for a night. I wanted the music (and lyrics video) to reflect the manic, overactive, and loud thoughts that anxiety produces. Plus, I wanted the song to really rock, because the band are so good at turning it up a notch - or three!”

The ‘Green’ EP is their first new collection of songs released since the 2016 debut album ‘Let me sleep’. Since then, The New 52 supported Blue Rose Code on a successful Irish tour, and released 2 singles ‘Good Intentions’ and ‘I Am’ which reached Number 1 in the iTunes Rock Charts.
