Prophets Of Addiction - Let’s Get High [Official Video]

Lead singer Lesli Sanders shares the story of the song and video: We are all looking for a high, although the term is often associated with drug use; in reality, it is most often not the case. In this case, the topic of the song as I was penning the lyrics was a reflection back into time of the excitement that surrounded a new release from a favorite band of mine. It was the effort put into not only purchasing the record, saving up money doing odd jobs, or whatever, as money was never handed to me; it had to be earned.

Then I knew I had to be at the record store in a timely fashion as it could sell out real quickly; maybe the particular mom and pop record store only would have 6 copies? I would get there by any means necessary, which usually meant my bicycle. Then the race was on, and after purchasing that record, I would hightail it home to throw that thing on the turntable with an excitement rarely found in this now world of instant gratification.

I mean, this was an accumulation of weeks, if not months, of preparation. Once that music was blasting, shaking the house much to my mom’s dismay, it was time to double-task, as I would listen to every nuance all the while scouring the artwork, credits, and photos. It was a time of great excitement and a good HIGH.

From a band that has been described as a modern day Hanoi Rocks meets The 69 Eyes, Prophets Of Addiction open their brand new album on the rhythmically propellent Flavor of the Danger and the drum led, guitar rocker Let’s Get High, and they are backed by the dutiful balladry of Slippin’ Away, the foot to the floor Walk the World, and a throaty rendition of the Rod Stewart classic Maggie May.

Along next is the melodious rocker Superhero and the forthright bluesy-rock of I Want You to Know and they are in turned followed by the easy going Hollywood, the feisty AOR of Wasted Tears, the album rounding out on the languishing ballad Last One in the Bar, closing on the gritty pop-rocker Take Me to Your Leader.
