You can listen to the exclusive stream of the song ‘K, the Bearer of Bad News’ below. When asked about the song, Christian Alexander says: “This song, ‘K, the Bearer of Bad News’, is basically about being frustrated with a certain partnership that I was involved in until about 3 or 4 months ago. Not a romantic partnership or a marriage. If I’m giving you my all, I expect the same in return. I don’t need drama. I don’t need to be around negative energy. The basic tracks for this were recorded in the fall of 2015 during the peak of my frustration. I then bounced them to my friend Andy (Andrew James Southard aka YOUNG AUNDEE) out west and he then worked with this guy Dusty Brown on them for a bit.
The letter “K” can mean anything to anyone. To me, it stands for a bunch of manipulative bull crap. Andy works as one of those dudes that pops up on someone and serves them divorce papers and that type of thing. Andy gets to be the “bearer of bad news”. He is always getting threatened and shit by whomever he is serving. ‘K, the Bearer of Bad News’ just seemed to make sense for the title of this song.”
