Peach Pit kicks off their sophomore era with a new single called “Feelin’ Low (Fuckboy Blues).” The Vancouver quartet, who were heralded as Ones To Watch upon the release of Being So Normal in 2017, return with a melancholy alt-pop/rock concoction. “We actually wrote ‘Feelin’ Low’ a number of years ago, and when listening back, it reminds me of last summer and how flakey I was being,” lead singer Neil Smith explains. “The first line of the song is ‘I want something more or less than what I have,’ which is me trying to say how disconnected I can get.”

“I’m constantly flip-flopping between wanting more connection with the people around me and pulling away to deprive myself of it, it’s a weird cycle I get into,” he continues. Peach Pit also unveiled a wrestling-themed video (below), which was also inspired by real-life events. “Last year our friends threw a wrestling-themed surprise party… I can’t remember exactly why, but I was feeling really down about something so I decided not to go,” Neil explains. “The video… conveys the experience of being surrounded by lots of people yet still feeling seemingly alone.”
