Angels & Airwaves Week: Heaven


11/08/07

(antiMusic) It seems like only yesterday that Angels & Airwaves released their debut album but the band isn't messing around and a little over a year after that CD dropped they are already back with their sophomore effort, 'I-Empire,' which hits stores this week. To celebrate the release we asked Atom Willard to pick his favorite five tracks from the new CD and tell us a little bit about each one. Here is Atom with today's song "Heaven"

The last song on the record, and the last song we finished as well. We had a big part of this song for most of the writing process, but then got completely sidetracked with different songs, and kept putting off wrapping it up. Sometimes it's harder to get so far so quick with a song and then stop since you get used to the way it sounds, and it's difficult to be objective. Our motto of "don't stop until it's perfect" can have us chasing a part for a while, like we did with this outro. Finally Tom came through with some killer lyrics that fit so well. This song completely wraps up two records worth of self discovery and expression, and epic and idealistic end to the whole thing.

Just in case you didn't know Angels & Airwaves is former blink-182 & Box Car Racer guitarist/vocalist Tom DeLonge, Offspring drummer Atom Willard, David Kennedy from Box Car Racer and former 30 Seconds to Mars bassist Matt Wachter. Tom produced the new album. Preview some tracks from the CD, learn more about the band and CD and more - right here
