Stereo Embers is preparing to premiere the video for The Alarm’s new song “Two Rivers.”
Taken from the band’s upcoming Equals album (out 6/29), the rousing clip was directed by Paul Green (Bad Company/King’s X).
The song is a fiery reminder that The Alarm are one of the most durable outfits around and in Mike Peters, they have an iron man of a frontman whose smoldering musical passion echoes his steely will for getting through a world that hasn’t always delivered the kindest of news.
Peters, who was diagnosed with lymph cancer in 1996, faced a leukemia diagnosis nine years later in 2005. A 2015 relapse was a new setback for the singer that was compounded by the news his wife Jules had breast cancer. While the couple received simultaneous treatment all Alarm concerns were suspended, but with both Jules and Mike now in remission, The Alarm are back with more passion for life than ever.
The video will debut on Stereo Embers Monday (5/21).
Meanwhile, “Two Rivers” will be made available simultaneously, as an Instant Grat release on all digital streaming services for those who pre-order / pre-save Equals here.
Equals will be released on 29th June and available on CD, LP and on all digital download and streaming services.
