The pandemic may have put a wrench in the production of Another Heaven's debut record, but it didn't keep the band away from us for too long. As a stop-gap, the sludgegaze act put out a single series in the middle of last year while they worked on the follow-up to their second EP, For Ever. The band has returned with the first single "Over It" off their forthcoming record.
For those familiar with Another Heaven, their music is a dark cloud that permeates everything. "Over It" is no different. Sonically, the trio moves between billowing fuzzed-out guitars and ethereal atmospherics, making the single a perfect soundtrack for society on the brink of collapse. They tap into the existential horror and subsequent apathy found when those in power do everything they can to maintain the status quo.
Thematically, "Over It" embodies the bystander effect of living in a world that wants to burn itself alive. The band comes from a place of wanting to someone else be the hope we need, but they fall to disappointment as the dream doesn't become a reality. Instead of falling to that feeling again, we just give in... we are "Over It." The way Another Heaven processes the themes of the single reminds me of the authenticity we expect in the more hyper-American music genres. It's messy and doesn't leave you with a satisfying conclusion, but there's comfort in the fact that there are other people feeling this way too.
Another Heaven will be releasing their record III: The Sorrowful Cries of Birds with Singed Feathers via Mpls Ltd on 8/27. Preorders have begun over on the band's Bandcamp page. You can also check out the music video, shot by Monica Coleslaw and edit by Ali Jafaar, for "Over It" below.
