To wrap up their momentous 2023 in style, Better Lovers have
just unveiled a new standalone single.
Entitled Two Alive Amongst The Dead, the track was written while
the supergroup were out on the road in the summer (in fact, if you caught ’em
live recently, you might have already heard it), with Will Putney explaining
that, “We were having fun with the high-energy, aggressive material live, and
that cathartic spirit carried into this song.
“This is a band that never stops having ideas and likes the
challenge of showing new music to fans live, so it was performed and fine-tuned
on our fall dates, and then immediately tracked in the studio between touring
to make sure that fire stayed intact. There is no better feeling than capturing
lightning in a bottle like this.”
“This song is about saying ‘fuck you’ to the societal and
institutional pressure to fall for ‘me versus you’ / ‘us versus them’ divisional
tactics and realising that we’re stronger when we remember the ways we’re the
same, trying to find commonalities instead of differences,” adds Greg Puciato. “Understanding
and finding compassion for one another instead of allowing ourselves to be
separated and controlled. Brothers and sisters. Pieces of the same
consciousness.”
