Against The Current have unveiled details of a new EP.
The seven-track 'Fever' will arrive on July 23 via Fueled By Ramen and mark the New York pop-rockers' first body of work since their 2018 album 'Past Lives'.
It'll include their previous single Weapon, released in March, along with the newly shared cut Again & Again, which features American rapper Guardin and spotlights the trio's knack for fierce rock melodies and electronic beats. Discussing it, singer Chrissy Costanza said:
"I wanted to encapsulate the maddening feeling of being trapped in a vicious cycle in your own head, and especially show that just because it’s all in your head, doesn’t at all detract from how real and potent that feeling can be.
"We were also really stoked to work with Guardin; he completely captured the essence of the song in his lyrics and the raw emotion of his delivery. It was such a blast getting to be the three of us in person again. After That Won't Save Us, restrictions had tightened up so everything we'd done since was remote until this shoot. Though we were able to get creative with the distance, nothing compares to being together in real life again."
Elaborating on the EP, Costanza added: "Throughout our lives we ebb and flow through stages of death, rebirth, growth and so the cycle continues. Yet sometimes the metaphorical dying aspect can be quite painful, or we may attempt to prolong the inevitable. Fevers occur when the body is trying to battle an infection, and sometimes our lives become infected as well. This EP is about the fever, burning out the infection within us and around us, so something new can be born."
'Fever' EP tracklist:
1. That Won't Save Us
2. Weapon
3. Again & Again (featuring Guardin)
4. Jump
5. Shatter
6. Burn It Down
7. Lullaby
