Better Lovers will release their debut album Highly Irresponsible on October 25. You can stream the new single "A White Horse Covered in Blood" below alongside its Eric Richter-produced video, and pre-order the record here.
"Writing and recording our first full length was slightly more surgical than the EP, but had a similar lack of restraint. I feel more pressure giving a quote for this press release than I felt all winter in Will's studio," said Buckley. "I got to wake up every day and watch the masters perfect their craft.
"I was a student. It was a playground. Everything was funny. We were reading each other's minds. Even creating our own language at some points. I didn't know if I was watching my closest friends write music, or if I was watching music use us to exist. The voice in my head warning me how Highly Irresponsible it was to hop on this bull again was gone. Replaced by big ideas, inside jokes, and a rejuvenated love for helping to write songs that don't sound like anything else.
"Humans and animals alike are programmed to do wild things for what they love. Highly Irresponsible things. And we love what we've created. We know you will too."
