The band’s label described the song as “A foot-stomping, disco-inflected, glitter-drenched rocker, full of Stones-y swagger and boasting a chorus that has already had audiences worldwide roaring it back at the band within seconds of hearing it.”
The band hasn’t released any details of the follow-up to its 2016 debut LP, Everybody Wants, but Spiller recently said he thinks “everyone’s really going to enjoy it.” “We were very much aware that even though the band has lived with the first album and the songs that come with it for quite a while, for everyone else, it’s relatively fresh,” he noted.
