Today the Toronto band Ducks Ltd. dropped the music video for Train Full of Gasoline.
The third single is taken from their upcoming album called Harms Way which comes out on February 9, 2024 via Carpark Records and Royal Mountain Records.
Another track that has The Smiths/New Order-esque jangle guitar pop-rock vibe.
About the track by Ducks Ltd.
The jumping off point for this song was a friend telling me about the Lac Megantic rail disaster in Quebec.
A 73 car train full of crude oil was left unattended and rolled down a hill before derailing and exploding in a town.
I read about it a bunch, and to my understanding it was a scenario where a bunch of small errors built up and compounded each other, with the result being a catastrophe out of proportion with any of the individual failures that precipitated it.
The song is about self destructive patterns. How if you try to ignore or minimize issues in your life they can manifest in places you don’t expect.
