Sleeping With Sirens frontman Kellin Quinn is teasing a track to call out the glorification of drug culture in music.
Quinn teamed up with DJ Yultron to write “The Bottom” about their shared experiences when it comes to drugs affecting their loved ones. He teased the song on his Instagram by reposting a video Yultron posted. =

“Too many young people dying.. Music and drugs don’t have to mix.. @yultron and I wanted to write a song about it.. Because we both lost friends close to us.. Not trying to tell anyone how to live their life.. Just expressing our feelings when it comes to the issue… #thebottom,” Quinn writes on Instagram.
Check out the teaser video below.
No release date has been announced yet for the song.
Quinn has expressed his dissatisfaction about drugs in the music scene before on Twitter last year. Check out that string of tweets below.

To the “select few” claiming that a song.. obviously having nothing to do with shooting the “actual” drug “heroin” or doing “morphine” need to be educated on the concept of metaphors…

There’s a diff between a song describing a relationship to be similar to the effects of a drug.. and songs that literally talk about doing drugs ?

Sleeping With Sirens announced last month that they would be releasing “heavier and better than ever” music in the new year. To say we are excited is an understatement.
