Copper Lungs explores bold new sounds with their latest track Pieces of Me

Published

If you’re new to Copper LungsPieces of Me is the perfect song to start with. This new single is a mix of everything we love about anthemic pop-rock, but with the emotional weight of a ballad. It’s equal parts grateful, vulnerable, and hopeful — a hard combo to pull off, but Copper Lungs does it so well.

Moving away from their usual indie-rock vibe, the Dundee-based band is now exploring more textured sounds and is determined to push their music in a fresh, bolder direction. As the song builds, you’re hit with a wave of ambient, layered synths and soaring guitar riffs. This track is a great snapshot of a band in evolution, bringing a more anthemic feel to their sound and making Pieces of Me one of their most dynamic tracks yet.

The fun part of the story behind the song is how it turned into something bigger than they first planned. Darren, the band’s songwriter, mentioned that Pieces of Me started out with a lighter, indie vibe. But as the band got into it, they let the song take on a life of its own, growing into something huge, engaging and honestly, kind of addictive!

The lyrics talk about the kind of love that finds you when you’re at a low point and ends up bringing you back to life. There’s a sense of looking back on tough times with a bit of gratitude, realising they’ve made you stronger and led you to this moment. That authentic emotion comes through clearly, and it’s even more impressive when you find out that Pieces of Me was written in just about an hour! 

For fans who’ve been following Copper Lungs, this shift in sound shows a band that’s willing to step out of their comfort zone and try something new. They’ve kept the heart and honesty that fans love, but now with an edge that’s bold and refreshing. Pieces of Me definitely feels like the start of a new chapter, and we’re lucky enough to be along for the ride!
