Curse Words Reveal New Single “Safely From Satan”

DC space punks Curse Words have released Safely From Satan, the third single off their upcoming Sci-Fi Murder Mystery Concept Album that will be released via Punkerton Records. Safely From Satan is a melodic sci-fi cyber-punk anthem that follows the Vagabond, a fugitive fleeing the collapse of the “City of Dreams” aboard an interstellar freighter, the track is the moment the Vagabond realizes they may not be escaping evil at all, they’ve brought it with them! If you need to catch up on the story Curse Words is telling with their new album, make sure to check out the prior two singles, Never See The Spiral Fade, and The Privateer.

Safely From Satan is part of a larger concept album, the song explores guilt, paranoia and the impossible pursuit of redemption as every escape leads deeper into danger. Drawing from the quiet/loud dynamics of the Pixies and Microwave while weaving together space-opera storytelling and sharp social allegory, the track balances a restrained desperation with a screaming acceptance of fate. Each character aboard the vessel represents a different class of society witnessing the same downfall from a unique perspective.
