\u201cToo Far Gone\u201d bursts to life with an infectious rock \u2019n\u2019 roll guitar riff, before exploding into a larger-than-life, anthemic chorus. The accompanying video captures the band doing what they do best: commanding the stage, delivering a powerhouse performance, and embodying the raw energy and charisma that define true rock stars.

\u201cA swagger Rock \u2018n\u2019 Roll tune from our upcoming album. Down it, whip it, drink it and realize you\u2019re Too Far Gone\u201d\u2013 Velveteen Queen<\/p>\n

Velveteen Queen are rapidly emerging as one of the most exhilarating young acts in the modern rock scene, channeling the grit, swagger, and anthemic power of classic \u201980s influences into a bold and contemporary sound. Having shared stages with Alice Cooper and Judas Priest, the five-piece have already built a reputation for their explosive live performances, undeniable stage presence and hook-laden rock songs.<\/p>\n

The new album, The Greater Good, is a record which channels the strut of the Sunset Strip\u2019s glory days via Sweden, with a healthy dash of old-school Guns N\u2019 Roses, alongside spiritual ties to Aerosmith, Velvet Revolver and Hanoi Rocks. Produced by renowned producer S\u00f6ren Andersen, there is an immediacy and vitality to Velveteen Queen\u2019s songwriting that commands attention from the very first note. Take the bounce and groove of the glam-punk \u201cTalk Or Walk\u201d, which boasts a huge choral hook and a snarling top lip of attitude. Meanwhile, \u201cLiar\u201d is soaked in sleazy bad boy mean streets, with riffs swinging low and hard. Yet there\u2019s also full ballad artistry on display with the soulful \u201cChains\u201d, showing that Velveteen Queen can bring it down to strands of raw emotion.<\/p>\n

Watch \/ listen to the recently released singles \u201cThe Greater Good\u201d featuring Peter Keys (Lynyrd Skynyrd) on piano and \u201cAdrenaline\u201d below. Both videos were directed by acclaimed filmmaker Patric Ullaeus.<\/p>\n
