"Dancing on Nails"
Song

"Dancing On Nails" is the second single released by the American rock band We Are Harlot from their self-titled debut album.

Release

The song was initially released via the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter on January 19' 2015.[1] The single was officially released when the band announced the release date of their debut album on January 20 and was also accompanied by the band's first music video.[2] It also serves as the album's opening track, and along with the rest of the album, it was produced by Kato Khandwala at Steakhouse Studios in North Hollywood.[2]

Reception

The song was called a "...high-energy radio-rock with a taste for ‘80s flash..." by Altpress writer Matt Crane and stated that the music video promoting the song "feels like a night out in Vegas—at one of the cheap casinos".[3] Crane also believes that as a result of Worsnop's vocal strain from performing with his former band Asking Alexandria it has enabled him to sing with more raspier 'rock' vocals.[3]
