10. “Bring On The Psychics“Vocalist/guitarist Walter Schreifels commented:
“For this album, I was going back to a lot of my earlier influences about [Youth Of Today‘s] ‘Break Down The Walls’ or [Gorilla Biscuits‘] ‘Start Today.’ Regardless of whether you’re into hardcore or youth crew, they’re really cool records because they’re speaking to the time and providing possible paths to a better future … with mosh parts. That’s the energy that I wanted to bring to this.”
The first two singles, “Get To It” and “Regenerate,” can be found below. Schreifels also had the following to say about those tracks:
“It’s tough to talk about your own music and what it means, not only because I sometimes don’t understand it myself but in a way it robs the listener of their own interpretation. So if you don’t want that, read no further. Otherwise, with ‘Get To It‘ and ‘Regenerate‘ we wanted to do something high-energy and straightforward with a positive feeling. ‘Get To It‘ is about ‘getting to it’, poking holes in the excuses for standing still. Procrastination is something I’ve struggled with my whole life so I’m always looking for a new mantra to help overcome my tendency to put things off.”
‘Regenerate‘ is about finding new paths forward. It’s a theme I think we all return to. No matter how well you play it, life will keep taking things away from you. It sucks but this is how we learn and grow as people, so it might be we’re living the most when faced with having to get back up from a hard hit.”
