"Faultlines"

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are preparing to release Hypnotic Eye on July 29 through Reprise Records, and the frontman has described the album as a "straight hard-rockin' record." We can now get another taste of this thanks to the newly unveiled "Faultlines."

The song is anchored by a brisk, repetitive drum beat. This is overlaid with stabs of distorted wah-wah guitar and a tuneful chorus hook before giving way to a couple of wailing guitar solos.
