Forgivers have released a video for their new single Pretty Boys, out now on DSPs. The New Jersey-based band features members of The Gaslight Anthem, The Ratchets and Let Me Run.
“Pretty Boys is a 1980s fever dream, and like our favourite rock and roll dream songs, it was written in a rush of inspiration and grounded with a cinematic guitar riff,” says frontman Jed Winokur. “While the verse vignettes hint at the larger idea of longing that the chorus drums up in “love can’t seem to light the way,” there’s also something else lurking in the lyrics — the idea that what we long for may also be longing for us too. And even though the ephemeral love in the song is always fleeting, it’s saying there’s still plenty of strength and beauty for us all to stumble upon.”
