    CD Jewel Case

    Pil&Bue are a fierce duo from the very North of Norway  

    With one of the best vocalists from Norway, Petter Carlsen, on vocals and guitar, and Gøran Johansen slaying the drums, they are an explosion of hard rock.  

    On February 24, 2023 the vigorous and resolute band, that has been touring consistently since the release of their previous albumThe World is a Rabbit Hole, is ready to release even more music, on a new album called Special Agents.  

    With subtle, but pronounced references to artists like Placebo, Deftones, Sigur Rós, Anathema and Mars Volta, Pil&Bue delivers “Hard, gloomy & joyful music...” (Metal Hammer NO) based on topics like memories, childhood aspirations, use of imagination, video games, and the intriguing online rabbit holes.  

    The band´s raw and melodic music quickly struck a note with Hollywood director Tommy Wirkola who included the Pil&Bue single “You Win Again” in his now cult-status movie “Dead Snow: Red vs. Dead” which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival January 2014. 

    Also, their single “Fire” from their second album “Forget the Past, Let’s Worry About The Future” is featured on the end credits of Hollywood/Netflix blockbuster “What Happened To Monday” (2017). 

    Pil&Bue released their acclaimed third album The World is a Rabbit Hole in September 2021, an album which got rave reviews:

about

Pil & Bue release their third, and perhaps one of the most significant and unfaltering singles from their upcoming album Special Agents.

Because Change Your Mind is a song about love, about the right to openly live with and love whomever you want, freely and without prejudice.
It is as reaction to the recurring theme of discrimination, prejudice, hatred, and violence people are faced with every day worldwide, simply because of what they identify as or who they have come to love.
In 2023, we should have come so incredibly much further, that people still are not free to love who they love or be who they are, is devastatingly heartbreaking.

Pil & Bue comment:

"Love is love. We find it infuriating that people are oppressed because of who they love, or who they are. Change Your Mind is a song that allows love to be what love is; unconditional."

lyrics

Lyrics:

Some wanna tear the rainbow down
and make everything turn to grey
in the eye of the storm tonight
it comes clear that so much has to change

the aim is still so far away and years fly by
I have to keep it to keep it together
will I ever see a world where love is love
no matter what
in our time
in our lives
without chains
in our minds

In the light of the past events
it's easy to look away
but despite of these dangerous times
let's set aim for what's right, make a change

All we hear all the time is be your self
No shame in changing your mind, be the change

the aim is still so far away and years fly by
hope will keep us to keep us together
this world would be a broken one
a broken home
a tragic one
without hope in our minds
without love in our lives
