\"10689599_10153597930222010_7000191265237789296_n\"<\/a>Have you been locked in the prison of your own mind? To become filled in lies you tell yourself and entrapped in a poisonous relationship when the one you loved just never cared and puts themselves on the highest of pedestals. Your mind is your ultimate torment. This is the story of the latest single from NYC\u2019s Naked Highway<\/strong><\/a> entitled \u201cNever Cared<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n

What a completely new turn for the guys of Naked Highway. \u201cNever Cared\u201d is a richer production quality unlike anything you\u2019ve heard from them in the past. This is an indication of what\u2019s to come from them- a sparse, more focused and accessible sound. Sy Boccari <\/strong>has stated \u201cMuch of our new material is song-focused \u2013 back to basics with an emphasis on vocal harmonies.\u201d Clearly! In the vocal harmonies you can really feel the torment in David Lee Rotten\u2019s<\/strong> voice as he\u2019s just ready to escape the mind prison he\u2019s locked in by trying to convince himself that he was in a decent relationship. With the very distant synth that Sy has placed into the song, you have this feel of a drifting reality that David was attempting to hide from.<\/p>\n

The video really takes the concept of being locked away in your own darkness to a reality. Using a safe for work visual of BDSM, the video guest stars adult film star Dirk Caber<\/strong> tying up both David <\/strong>and Sy<\/strong> in a physical manifestation of what is going on through the painful lyrics. As they overlook the beautiful harbor from the NYC Meatpacking district, it\u2019s as if the confines of the walls that separate them from the outside world is the equivalent of seeing what is going inside their brain and the beauty that lies beyond those walls of they can just get out of the pain they are in.<\/p>\n

This new turn in Naked Highway<\/strong>\u2019s music is very exciting to see what could be a re-invention of the glam pop duo. You begin to feel pure emotion and you get back to the root of what makes pop music special; True meaning behind the music. It will be interesting to see where they go next. For now, we would care if you took a look at \u201cNever Cared<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n
