Steve Aoki and Taking Back Sunday have teamed up for a collaborative single.

Just Us Two marks Taking Back Sunday's second release of 2022, following frontman Adam Lazzara's appearance on The Maine single Loved You A Little back in January. It's Aoki’s fourth of the year, following Welcome To The Playhouse, Da Homies and Kult.

Penned by the band and Aoki during a studio session earlier in 2022, the energetic cross-genre track fuses Lazzara's familiar vocal style with the cinematic production from the DJ and producer, who said:

"I met up with Taking Back Sunday in Charlotte, North Carolina and we recorded the song live in a physical recording studio, honing in on the group’s powerful instrumentation. I come from a punk background and it’s always so good to work with artists that share the same passion for live music. This record encapsulates both of our roots while maintaining the Aoki elements that bound the track together."

Lazzara added: "Getting a call asking if we wanted to write with Steve Aoki was very surreal. Steve comes from a very similar background as we do, house shows, DIY labels, the whole thing. We were listening back to different ideas he had, and one guitar part in particular caught our drummer Mark's ear. We approached it in the same way we do our own songs, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Turns out our worlds aren’t as far apart as people might think."

Taking Back Sunday will embark on a co-headline North American tour with Third Eye Blind this summer, billed as the Summer Gods Tour. They released 'Twenty', a career spanning compilation, in 2019.

Steve Aoki's last full-length, meanwhile, was 2020's 'Neon Future IV'.
