L.S. Dunes are kicking off their next chapter with new single
How Dare You.
Released on Valentine’s Day, the song is about “pushing yourself
beyond your limits and giving your all to something in order to achieve
alternate states of consciousness and connection” according to vocalist Anthony
Green, and it also “sets the stage for the new era of L.S. Dunes”.
The singer explains: “The past life is gone and yet it never
really was. How Dare You examines the mentality behind what you choose to grab
as you’re running out of your burning house. Except the burning house is in the
dirt underneath your dentist’s fingernails.
“My parents had just sold the house I grew up in and I had just
gotten sober again for the millionth time when I felt like what I imagine
people say when they use the phrase ‘born again’. Even though I hadn’t lived
there in years, I was still holding onto so much baggage and drama. I used to
think my parents had an alarm system at that house connected to the police that
would alert them in case we were ever in trouble. I think I told myself this
because it brought me comfort. All I would ever see on the news was that people
would get robbed, and I thought that was something that happened a lot, but that
we were safe from it all because of the silent alarm we didn’t actually have.
“This song became a way for me to examine the transformation I
was making into being an adult in this world where I used to view all adults as
oppressors of magic. Now I get to be a proponent of its growth and celebrate
change and communication.”
