Queen drummer Roger Taylor has revealed a brand new track and a short film, both titled “Journey’s End.” The new song follows the release of his 2013 LP Fun on Earth. He says the new release represents a music side that is “symphonic in scale and autumnal in mood.” “It’s a ‘piece,'” Taylor explains of the song, which clocks in at nearly seven minutes. “Which is why there is a long solo in it. I’ve just let it take its own course. I just didn’t want to make it quick, edit it. I wanted it to be fairly contemplative, fairly dreamlike, a mood piece.” The song is a reflection on mortality and he adds: “It is a sort of acceptance of the fact that this a journey, and that journey will come to an end,” he adds. “Even the bass sequence, which is almost random, is a plodding footstep kind of thing. A journey towards the tail end, the September of one’s years.” Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
