Against The Current Announces New EP “fever”, Drops New Song “again&again” featuring guardin
Poughkeepsie-based rock band Against The Current announced their upcoming fifth EP “fever” would be released on July 23, 2021.
The EP comprises of 7-track and is their first project since the 2018 album “Past Lives”.
From the EP, the band unveiled the third single called “again&again” along with a music video on June 23, 2021, following “that won't save us” and “weapon”.
The band teamed up with American rapper guardin on the track. It was written by guardin, Will Ferri, Matt Squire, Dan Gow and Chrissy Costanza. The accompanying music video was directed by Matt Trainor.
“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,” frontwoman Chrissy Costanza said of the song. “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.”- sURhALFOo6w

She explained of the EP, “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.”- source : Spotify
