"Love Me Like I'm Sick", is not only the lead single to come off the EP "Pseudo Star" by His Dream Of Lions, but should be the anthem of the current epidemic that is the cold and flu season. While the song is not literally about an illness of these cases, it is more an in-between the lines tune, dealing with love and loss, but along those lines in a somewhat mannerism. In any case though, "Love Me Like I'm Sick", is the single of choice, and one that has such a kick going for it, it is no wonder that it was chosen as a single in the first place. Aside from this single though, the rest of the EP "Pseudo Star", is very fluid and vivid. It takes the styling that once was known by His Dream Of Lions, that was pop rock to a more indie rock, sounding a lot like Queen crossed with Fun and Colony House. You get so many emotions when listening in to it. You got your serious, intimate, empowering, touching, that is just shines through, pressing on to build upon what is there to make from it all. If any of that makes much sense or difference really. It turns out to be an EP that has turned His Dream Of Lions for the better, than the worse, in terms of change of pace, sound, and style. This new twist of fate, being good as it works for them, more so, on these senses, that it has an elemental flow, that only these guys can build and craft with, creating even more in-depth material, that will draw in more easily, and easier with each hear through, no matter the tune, it is that catching and upbeat.


The rock/alternative group His Dream of Lions, formulated their name after Ernest Hemingway's novel "The Old Man and The Sea," because of the ambitious spirit and moral intent of the main character's reoccurring dreams. With that being said, the four young rockers love the thrill of chasing their dreams. Having known one another through the local Fairfax, Virginia music scene, guitarist Nick Jones, and singer Seth Coggeshall came together during the spring of 2012 to form the band. After a period of relentless gigging and writing, the band's lineup was finalized with the addition of bassist Justin Mason and keyboardist Colby Witko in 2013 with the release of their EP's "Part One", and "Part Two". Following the "Part One/Two", record cycle, His Dream Of Lions moved forward in the summer of 2015 to record and release their self-titled EP. Leading up to the record's release the band released a music video for "Danger Close" which debuted on Fuse seem HERE.

Following their tumultuous journey thus far, the band just announced their brand new EP, Pseudo Star, due out February 2018 engineered, mixed, and mastered by Ben Green at Ivakota Studios. Off the forthcoming EP comes their new single "Love Me Like I'm Sick." Reminiscent of acts like Fun., COIN, and Colony House, the track features a sound that is a departure from the band's pop/rock style with new kinds of synths and drum sounds. Check out the brand new video, exclusively with Baeble Music right HERE and be sure to pre-order the brand new EP HERE.

The band's lead singer, Seth Coggeshall had this to say about the EP: "Pseudo Star is about that feeling. It captures that feeling not only with the subject matter of the songs, but also in the tonal extremes the record sits in between. Pseudo Star is funny, yet serious. It can at times be epic, and other times intimate. We're playing fun rock music that has moments that sound really empowering. However the lyrics, and the sentiments in the songs don't portray a confident or powerful person. Instead I sound unsure, and a little self-deprecating. Despite all this though, the point of Pseudo Star isn't to encourage listeners to revel in self-doubt, or self-pity. It's about effort in the face of uncertainty. It's hard to know where you're heading. And maybe we will always feel like were at the halfway point. Always feel like a Pseudo Star...But Pseudo Stars still shine, and that's more than enough reason to press on."
