(Atom Splitter) Calling All Captains are thrilled to announce their new EP, (e)motion sickness, out July 19 via New Damage Records. Today, the band, whose music is a supremely catchy hybrid of pop punk and post-hardcore, has shared the video for the first single "wallflower."
The song is as gritty as it is unforgettable, and it builds up to an epic breakdown that will incite mosh pits and singing along at once."'wallflower' is a song about how hard it can be to be in a relationship or maintain friendships while dealing with depression," shares vocalist Luc Gauthier.
"The sentiment that 'nothing could ever fix me' while simultaneously looking for a reason to be happy is the exact juxtaposition of being comfortable in your sadness but knowing it can't continue like this forever."
(e)motion sickness TRACK LISTING:
"wallflower"
"be cool"
"skin & bones"
"float back (interlude)"
"one more day"
"sunbeam"
