The Amazons have joined forces with Royal Blood for new single ‘My Blood’.
Teaming up with long term friends and touring comrades Royal Blood, the track is the latest to be taken from The Amazons’ forthcoming album ‘21st Century Fiction’, due out on 09 May 2025.
Produced by Mike Kerr and featuring Ben Thatcher on drums, ‘My Blood’ is a triumphant slice of euphoric, main stage ready rock. “Why do we carry on when the chips are down and all we hear is ‘stop’?,” The Amazons frontman Matt Thomson asks. “‘My Blood is an exploration into why, when you truly believe in something, you can push yourself past the point of pain. It’s not something you can intellectualise, it’s something you feel. With age comes more responsibilities, obstacles, reasons to quit. But in ‘My Blood’ I wanted to illustrate a force out of our control, deep inside of us, that forsakes that rational thinking.”

Discussing working with Royal Blood, Thomson commented, “Mike was one of the first people I spoke to about collaborating on 21st Century Fiction. He’s become somewhat of a mentor over the years. He’s one of the few in the industry I can pick up the phone to and sink away the hours. I felt this album and ‘My Blood’ was the right time to dig deeper into the shared language I feel we have. And any opportunity to work with artists we respect and admire is one we want to take.”
