The 69 Eyes Return With Flashy, Catchy, Neon-Soaked Tune “Drive” [Video]

Finnish rock band The 69 Eyes have shared a new single and video for “Drive” off their new album due in 2023 from Atomic Fire Records.

“Drive” is another trademark gothic rock ‘n roll jam from the band that’s super catchy. It comes alongside a neon-soaked music video, directed by Vicente Cordero, that’s a flashy good time.

“The inspiration came from the same pool of music I have always liked, mostly from the ’80s,” said guitarist Bazie.

“I never plan anything; just grab my guitar and see what comes up. We jammed a lot more as a band this time and came up with song ideas from all the guys. ‘Drive’ started from one little riff, which I had for a long time. It took a while, but it was worth it. It still sounds exciting, and that was the goal.”

The 69 Eyes singer Jyrki 69 adds: “Bazie delivered this music, and I was blown away by how fresh it felt again. Sounded like some rock radio stuff.

“Our songs are on daily rotation on the rock channels here in Finland, but they are the ones that we did 15 years ago. So, I thought that we could have some fresh options now, let’s take the airwaves!
