As the opening chords of ‘We Are All Going to Die’ begin, it becomes clear why Washington Irving is on the road to success.
Written following a period of unrest between the band, ‘We Are All Going To Die’ perfectly blends an upbeat, almost frantic, tempo with an intense and meaningful choice of lyrics.
Washington Irving have yet to write a song that doesn’t demand to be listened to, what emerges from this single in particular is the juxtaposition between a sense of isolation and togetherness.
This is due to the very nature of the song and the numerous voices that accompany the band during the chorus.
Washington Irving is undoubtedly victorious with ‘We Are All Going To Die’ and has managed to successfully establish themselves as rising stars.
