Shigure on My Back

Johnny Smoke - Shigure on My Back
The time that has passed will never return.
Like cold passing rain falling across a man's back, pain and loneliness move quietly into the dark. Still, he does not turn around. He keeps walking forward through smoke and rain.
"Shigure on My Back" is a dark cinematic blues rock song by Johnny Smoke, telling the story of a man who carries his past in silence but refuses to stop moving.
A deep, rough male vocal, slow crying blues guitar, heavy bass and drums, and the atmosphere of a rain-soaked night shape this lonely outlaw blues. Black coats, old scars, cigarette smoke, and memories never spoken aloud drift through every verse.
This is not a song about escaping loneliness.
It is a song about carrying it with strength.
The past does not forgive.
The road does not wait.
Still, the man keeps walking.
If you know who you are, this blues is for you.
If you don't... maybe the smoke will show you.
