Toronto alt-pop quartet the Seashores are about two months away from releasing their new album No Exhausting Emotions, and it’s shaping as much as be one thing particular. Since final 12 months, the Seashores have been steadily dropping songs that’ll seem on the brand new LP, and all of them are heaters: “Jocelyn,” “Final Women At The Occasion,” “Did I Say Too A lot.” Immediately, they’ve bestowed one other one upon us.
The Seashores’ new single “Contact Myself” just isn’t a Divinyls cowl, although it’s sharp and catchy and polished sufficient that I can think about it getting radio play again in that early-’90s Divinyls second. Additionally, the Divinyls tune is about jerking off, whereas this one is about not jerking off. In a press launch, the Seashores say, “‘Contact Myself’ is a tune about being so heartbroken you may’t even masturbate, as a result of once you do, it simply makes you consider your ex. It’s about how grief can sneak into essentially the most personal components of your life and depart you feeling completely wrecked.”
Fairly frankly, this tune is just too good to be popping out because the fourth single from an album that also received’t be out for some time. It’s an absolute alt-pop banger, a fuzzy and open-hearted burst of riffs and melodies, that carries a slight Florence + The Machine feeling. Test it out beneath.
No Exhausting Emotions is out 8/29 on AWAL.
