Better Lovers will release their debut LP "Highly Irresponsible" through Sharptone Records on October 25th.
By challenging each other to progress, Better Lovers challenge heavy music to move forward along with them.
Driven by the same restless spirit and clear intention, this cohort of longtime musicians have rallied around a shared vision of creative fearlessness and relentless energy. Playing with a chemistry bordering on magic, the musicians—Greg Puciato [vocals], Jordan Buckley [guitar], Will Putney [guitar, producer], Steve Micciche [bass], and Clayton “Goose” Holyoak [drums]—naturally evolve on their 2024 full-length debut album, Highly Irresponsible.
Puciato keeps it simple, “New album. First full-length. It’s a typical thing to say, but we’re excited to start getting this thing out there. Everyone really brought their best to this and brought out the best in each other.”
Better Lovers have shared the second single, "Future Myopia", from the band's upcoming full length debut, Highly Irresponsible, out October 25th via SharpTone Records. The new single is paired with a music video created by thealienarms.
Vocalist Greg Puciato shared the following:
Not that all of them weren't, but this one was a lot of fun to write. The bass-centric part in the back half of the song is one of my favorite moments on the whole record. Shout out to big Mitch. Same with the riff that comes after it. There were a lotta fun pitches to hit/alley-oops to catch for me in this one. Chorus took me a minute so that was a nice puzzle to figure out too. It's been a joy writing with these guys and having so much different stuff thrown at me.
Guitarist Jordan Buckley added:
Writing and recording our first full-length was slightly more surgical than the EP, but has a similar lack of restraint. I got to wake up every day and watch the masters perfect their craft. It was a playground. Everything was funny. We were reading each other's minds. Even creating our own language at some points. I didn't know if I was watching my closest friends write music, or if I was watching music use us to exist.
Producer and guitarist Will Putney also shared:
We're so dialed in to exactly what we want to do, and our creative process is so in sync and natural that we rarely hit a wall when we work on music. My role is to capture the energy of the band the way it's intended to sound: a band firing on all cylinders.
