“’Chemicals’ is about getting way too fucked up (literally and emotionally) while in pursuit of someone I was into. One of the first few sessions I had with Colin, I walked in and was like ‘Dude I feel like shit’. I was all pissed off, hungover, and sleepless and wanted to capture that feeling and make it feel like something people could sing along with and move to. The track went on to become the defining sound that would anchor this brand new project, and give direction for writing the rest of the EP.” – Elijah Noll, vocalist for American Teeth

“Hi everyone! We’re Love Like Fiction and this is our new track ‘Summer Daze’. This song is an upbeat mix of emotional turbulence matched with hopeful resolution. There are undertones of the struggles of mental illness, but Summer Daze is a reflection on personal growth and camaraderie most of all. It’s the first single off our EP, Sounds of City Streets, which will be released on October 25th. We hope you like it!” – Paul Ritchie, bassist for Love Like Fiction

“Ever since we started making music, we’ve felt pressured to sound more like this, look a bit more like that, lose weight, cut our hair… As an indie band, we don’t exemplify the cliche of happy-go-lucky artists pressured to fit a mold by the big, bad cigar-chomping record executive. Instead we struggle with the constant push-and-pull of both external and internal expectations that we feel the need to live up to, where sometimes the hardest ones to contend with are those we place on ourselves.” – Monowhales
