The French rock group has just shared One by One, the third extract from its new album, “III”, to come at the weekend.
Recent Releases
In recent weeks, Last Train has been on a roll, releasing a series of impactful singles. Starting with the haunting “Home”, followed by the incisive “The Plan”, the group has now unveiled “One by One,” just days ahead of their much-anticipated third album, “III”.
Musical Evolution
“One by One” showcases a visceral sound that captures listeners with its raw energy and emotional depth. The track reflects the band’s intentional growth in musical production, attributed to their rigorous studio efforts. Their previous project, “Original Motion Picture Soundtrack,” encouraged them to explore new sonic territories, resulting in more refined and impactful compositions.
Emotional Resonance
The intensity of the new single is palpable, as it combines powerful instrumentation with evocative lyrics. Guitarist Julien Peultier emphasizes their focus on emotion, stating, “We always liked to make music rather turned towards emotion and it has always been a common thread in our writing,” in a recent interview with Rock & People.
Visual Accompaniment
Alongside the single, “One by One” is accompanied by a visually striking music video. Directed by the band, the video draws inspiration from the “praxinoscope,” an optical device invented by Emile Reynaud in 1876 that creates the illusion of movement. The video encapsulates the synergy between Last Train and cinema, described as “almost a tribute” to the wild essence of rock music, infused with cinematic elegance.
Upcoming Album and Tour
The eagerly awaited album “III” is set to be released on January 31. Following the album drop, Last Train will embark on a tour throughout France and Europe, with notable performances planned at the Hellfest on June 20, and two concerts at the Trianon in Paris on December 4 and 5, 2025. Fans can purchase tickets through the band’s official platforms.
Conclusion
With a striking new single and an upcoming album, Last Train continues to solidify its place in the rock landscape. Their commitment to emotional storytelling and musical experimentation promises to captivate audiences as they prepare for their tour and album release.
