Only Us is the latest to be lifted from 'Palms', the follow up to 2016's 'To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere', which is due out on September 14 through Epitaph.
The synth-laden track champions inclusivity, with vocalist Dustin Kensrue singing: "Finally when will it be enough? To find there's no them, there is only us." It ricochets beautifully between stripped back moments and pummelling guitars creating imposing soundscapes. Kensrue said:
“‘Only Us’ came from thinking about how we’re so easily divided into ‘us’ and ‘them,’ when really we have an inherent ability to care for those in our group, and the parameters for who falls into that group are extremely flexible. It’s about how the things that we think separate us are actually inconsequential, and if we could broaden the idea of ‘us’ to include all people, it would help us to build a more loving and civil society.”
