MICK MARS shares second solo single 'Right Side Of Wrong'
15-12-2023
MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist Mick Mars has released “Right Side Of Wrong”, the second single from his upcoming solo album, “The Other Side Of Mars”. Lyrically, “Right Side Of Wrong” explores the oxymoron of two individual minds viewing their position as the right one, while in reality it is simply personal perspective — a present theme in interpersonal relationships we all navigate and more broadly the catalyst of many conflicts n a global societal basis. The releaes comes with an accompanying music video.
Watch “Right Side Of Wrong” below.
This past April, Mars filed a lawsuit against MÖTLEY CRÜE, alleging his longtime bandmates were trying to kick him out of the group and reduce his ownership stakes because of his illness.
Mars told the band last year he would be unable to tour because of his disease. The guitarist “just could no longer physically handle the rigors of the road,” according to his lawsuit. But he said he would be able to perform with them in a “residency situation” and record with the band.
In response to Mick‘s decision to retire from the road, the lawsuit claimed, MÖTLEY CRÜE announced that Mars was “retiring” from the band and would be replaced by former ROB ZOMBIE and MARILYN MANSON guitarist John 5. Mars claimed he had no intention of retiring from the group, and accused CRÜE bassist and main songwriter Nikki Sixx of gaslighting Mars by alleging the guitarist had “some sort of cognitive dysfunction.”
“The Other Side Of Mars” will be released on February 23, 2024. The effort will be made available via Mick‘s own label 1313, LLC, in partnership with MRI.
