Last year's self-titled debut, released in the depths of thepandemic, fully achieved this goal, distilling decades of North Bay punkand post-hardcore into an urgent, artful set of emotive unrest. Their latestsingle, A Better Treatment b\/w Everyone Gets In, further refines thegroup's singular mix of weathered melody and abrasive poetics, equalparts bracing, bruised, and cryptic.\"A Better Treatment\" began as a song about a friend who died butthrough the turmoil of collaboration transformed into something moremacroscopic and opaque, blurring the boundary between hopeful anddefeated (\"I thought loving someone would cure my self-hatred\"). Bassand drums build against walls of guitar while the violin threads it's ownmelancholy within the noise; Farrar is blunt about the intention: \"The violinis an instrument of death you know.\"\"Everyone Gets In\" is both poppier and more pained, an anthem for angstaging into the reverie of regret: \"We lose our strength \/ along the way \/ welose each other \/ the funeral sways.\" The tempo sways too, graduallyslowing to an anxious crawl before finally revving back into a storm ofshimmering guitar and splashing drums, fighting against the dying of thelight. It's music of raw truths and rejected pedestals, storied butunswerving, a revolt against the great regress: \"and my \/ my time is spent\/ adoring seasons \/ that I \/ I never should've.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55673509740884,"sku":"11586671775.0","price":1.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/4971\/9636\/files\/4011405-2757166.jpg?v=1777543051","url":"https:\/\/b72pu6-p5.myshopify.com\/products\/spice-a-better-treatment-clear-black-splatter-vinyl","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
