Dropping their first song since 2022, Bearings is back with their brand new single, “Gone So Gone.” Released via Pure Noise Records, the band is introducing fans to a new era of bangers, with this first single marking the beginning of a release campaign for their upcoming LP, The Best Part About Being Human. The album is set to drop on August 18.
Describing the record, the band said, “‘The Best Part About Being Human’ is being alive and the second best part is writing an upbeat and exciting record with your brothers in a small house in North Hollywood. This record was us figuring out what we really wanted to play live, what got us excited, and I think we found that.
“Gone So Gone” is the quintessential pop-punk summer banger that takes you back to California in the 90s, a time when Green Day and Blink 182 were ruling the airwaves and skate parks were the destination on the weekends. It is a feel-good track that combines in-your-face guitar strums with catchy gang vocals that are worthy of a crowd sing-along. The lyrics point to living in the moment and the idea of removing negativity from your life. This is a sentiment that Bearings has embodied since the beginning, but the single gives it a refreshing new sound.
The band had this to say about the track:
“’Gone So Gone’ is about making fun of yourself and your situation. The song really is about heartbreak but by sort of creating it yourself. Sad but sort of funny, as with anything in life, I think it’s good to laugh at yourself about it. Why else would I use the word fuss?”
