With this Friday’s (October 25th) release date of their debut album “Highly Irresponsible” looming, Better Lovers have dropped a video directed by Stray From The Path‘s Anthony Altamura for their new song, “Love As An Act Of Rebellion“. The mathy metalcore supergroup boast a lineup that features current and former members of Every Time I Die, The Dillinger Escape Plan & Fit For An AutopsyJordan Buckley had the following to offer of this final advance track:
“Here’s one more appetizer before the ‘Highly Irresponsible‘ main course is served this Friday. Some crispy green beans before your Buddha’s Fest. A blooming onion before your slow roasted prime rib. Unlimited soup and salad before your Tour of Italy. ‘Love As An Act of Rebellion’ is now out everywhere. Learn the words, answer The Knock™?!”
Vocalist Greg Puciato added:
“This song has become one of my personal top three or four on the record. I knew it was the final song in the tracklisting as soon as I heard the instrumental. It runs the gamut emotionally, starting with this immediate frenetic and urgent desperation, and then ending in this place of uneasy acceptance; acceptance with a question mark. Extremely satisfying emotionally and stylistically to write vocals to this one. To stick with Jordan’s food analogies, to me this is a full course meal in one song. If I had to show people one song off of the record and one song only, I think this would be the one.”
