Orlando, FL-based pop-punk band Hungover has shared the third single from their upcoming album, which will feature eight unheard tracks. 

Out of Body” follows the release of Shake It Off.”

“Dodging texts, task paralysis, and avoidance can sever relationships you never meant to. Sometimes that means neglecting the people you love most. I knew I needed help, but feeling like a burden to the people who surrounded me made me think I needed to push them away. When I got better, I had to mend certain relationships and that wasn’t easy. In some cases, there were things I couldn’t fix so I had to seek the closure that I forced people to find themselves,” vocalist Marc Cortes says. “‘Out of Body’ takes on the idea that sometimes a ‘coming of age’ moment can mean realizing that you were wrong/have failed and that’s okay!”

Hungover is the product of the ashes of other bands and the years its members — Marc Cortes, Sean Connors, and Gabe Santiago  spent together in the Orlando music scene. It’s there that Hungover cut their teeth in small, packed clubs and bars, carefully honing their penchant for energetic, impactful, and wildly pop-sensible guitar rock. In the studio, Hungover learned to push the envelope and sharpen WILT’s five songs with the help of producer and engineer Alan Reitman. After self-releasing WILT to underground acclaim, Hungover chose to team up with Smartpunk Records to release the EP on vinyl with three brand new, unreleased songs mastered by Alan Douches (Real Friends, Fall Out Boy, Every Time I Die). Three’s Company, Exit: Stage Left, and Sleep Alone all effortlessly exhibit the same vigor, cleverness, and raw emotion of the five songs that preceded them, but capture the experience and know-how of a band at their peak.

Hungover as a whole is a helium, their dynamic sound inflating any room they inhabit. A bar becomes a hall, a club becomes a theatre, and so on; and it’s no accident either. By allowing themselves to be molded by the rooms they’ve played, Hungover is in turn able to mold those rooms themselves. It’s this awareness that instills WILT with the exact same sensation; that urgent push from the inside of the chest and the awareness that the moment is somehow bigger than the seconds it exists in. That indefinable something.
