With his latest single ‘The Doomsday Clock (85 Seconds to Midnight)’, Hertford-based singer-songwriter Stephen Wicks delivers his fifth release, drawing directly from the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists’ Doomsday Clock. The 74-year-old singer-songwriter excels in songwriting and music, which draw from his life experiences and observations of the world around him. His music carries a sense of purpose and urgency while leaving an impact on the minds of listeners.

“Turn the volume up before ‘The Doomsday Clock’ runs out of 85 seconds.”

You can feel that urgency as soon as you play ‘The Doomsday Clock (85 Seconds to Midnight)’, and trust me, it’s a song that will open a lot of minds. The song tackles climate change, nuclear proliferation, artificial intelligence, and geopolitical instability with a message that time is slipping away. The 85-second countdown hangs over the track like a warning that refuses to fade into the background. The driving rock instrumentation, George Shilling’s cinematic production, and Wicks’ theatrical vocals sync in so well that you will feel that need to stop the ticking time. But if you want to really feel that rush, just switch on the music video. Trust me, this will take your experience to another sonic intensity. Don’t wait for the clock to hit zero; press that play button now!
