New Detroit will appear on the Scranton indie-rockers' upcoming sixth album, 'I Won’t Care How You Remember Me', due out on March 5 via Hopeless Records.
The acoustic guitar driven track taps into the calmer aesthetic of their sound and arrives accompanied by a mysterious video produced by and starring the band. Vocalist and guitarist Ben Walsh said:
"This song was conceptualized while touring internationally after starting a new relationship. I was reflecting on an international tour years before when my home life was in a rough place, and that took over the entire experience.
"I remembered feeling mentally split between the two places, unable to be in the moment even though it was this amazing experience in a new place. New Detroit is about the contrast between the two experiences, and how it felt like two completely different lives."
Discussing the clip, he added: "I was thinking about how I find inspiration to write. Sometimes it just comes to you mysteriously. The song New Detroit is sort of different from most songs I write, so the video reflects the concept of experimenting to find inspiration."
Produced by the band with longtime collaborator Will Yip, the 11-song record also includes the previously released singles Hesitation, Lemon Mouth, and Cat’s Cradle.
