Dystopian in mood, the song is a reflection of the angst and anti-authoritarian attitude I had to conformity.” The new brutally honest track is just a taste of… Read more »

After announcing their forthcoming third studio album, The Crucible Of Life, earlier this week, The Home Team have launched a double feature music video for their new singles “Roommates” and “Overtime.” “‘Roommates’ and ‘Overtime’ are two sides of the same coin,” vocalist Brian Butcher shares. “I’m not super into astrology, but I do admit that I identify pretty heavily with the descriptions of my sign of Gemini in that I flip flop between two sides of myself. These songs are a conversation between those two sides. ‘Roommates’ is from the perspective of a driven, organized and motivated side of me,… Read more »
