“Cause of Death” by Chris Farren

Chris Farren, has dropped new single “Cause of Death.” “Just tell me it could never happen to me!” – Farren pleads, as a swirl of distortion and slide guitar washes over its anthemic chorus. “Cause of Death” is about that morbid curiosity we all have (..right??) anytime there’s news of a death but the cause is left ambiguous. It’s a weird, kind of gross, voyeuristic tendency that I’m embarrassed about, but can’t seem to shake. Writing this song was an attempt to work through those thoughts and ideas. And it worked and I’m cured. –Chris Farren
