I had the good fortune to receive a preview of this single from the great Earshot Media and was not disappointed when I hit play.  The press notes for this also state that TLM worked with Jesse Gander during the recording.  If you know Japandroids, well Gander worked with them also and those albums are excellent.  

This track has one of those faraway melodic intros that give you a sense of calm for a few seconds, then the drum starts in and builds to the opening lyrical boom.  Despite its generally heavy tone this song is hopeful (“you can be anything you want, just don’t believe the lies you’re told”)…kind of a rebellious challenge against the negativity the world may be pouring down on us all.  A well composed and good listen all around.

Note that they do have a new album coming also and you can access some streaming and pre-order info via this link:  https://zjwgpy.clicks.mlsend.com/ty/cl/eyJ2Ijoie1wiYVwiOjEwOTI4NjUsXCJsXCI6MTQ5MzkyNzc1MTIxNDcwNjc4LFwiclwiOjE0OTM5Mjg0MDA5NTQzMzc0MX0iLCJzIjoiNDc2ZDBmOTdhZmVlYjY5NyJ9
