They didn’t overthink it. They didn’t waste a second. They simply left their blood, sweat, and tears on tape—like they’ve always done. For as much as Better Lovers represents the union of former Every Time I Die members Jordan Buckley [guitar],Steve Micciche [bass], and Clayton “Goose” Holyoak [drums] with The Dillinger Escape Plan and Killer Be Killed frontman Greg Puciato [vocals],and musician (Fit For An Autopsy/END) and GRAMMY® Award-winning producer, Will Putney [guitar], it really cements the bond of five friends around a shared vision. That vision is as uncompromising, unapologetic, and undeniable as anything they’ve individually done, yet it’s refined by experience and a commitment to a future together. They’re in it for the long haul… “To me, this band is refreshing,” exclaims Jordan. “Looking back, I’m so happy everything got me to where I am. The pandemic and the last few years made me hungrier and more grateful. This isn’t a hobby. This isn’t temporary. This is the next evolution for each of us. Greg and Will rejuvenated me and made me even more confident. Now, everybody needs to know we’re a wild animal that just broke out of the zoo—there’s no trying to put it back in the cage.” “Better Lovers definitely feels like its own thing,” states Greg. “I’m in so many lanes right now, so it was important that one lane didn’t step on another. However, nothing I’m doing is this vicious. This is full-on scathing. It’s been really fun. I forgot how much I liked that.” As the story goes, Jordan ended up back in Buffalo, NY, jamming in a basement rehearsal spot with Steve and Goose during the winter of 2022. After working with Will on the last two Every Time I Die records, they shared a handful of early demos with him to produce. As the year progressed, Jordan caught Greg on the road with Jerry Cantrell in Las Vegas, mentioning the new music. Once ideas solidified, he shared them with the vocalist who replied at 3am one night in December. “The text said, ‘Let’s give these motherfuckers what they want’,”chuckles Jordan. “I went to bed smiling and laughing. There is no one like Greg on stage, off stage, or over text. Once I told Will, he was like, ‘Can I play?’ We said, ‘Of course!’ That’s how it was born.” “Once I pick up the scent, I’ll go for the kill,” smiles Greg. “We’ve all hung out, gotten to know each other, and it’s all fire now. Everyone has already been through shit. You know yourself better. Your ego isn’t as big as it used to be. You can share your opinions. It’s a cool dynamic.” Fittingly, they introduce this era with the single “30 Under 13.” A seasick guitar groove bleeds into an incisive riff punctuated by Greg’s vitriolic and venomous screams, “Hold onto me, try to let go of me, let go of what you’ll never be. ”This barrage unpredictably subsides on a haunting clean vocal, only to ramp back up into a pit-splitting thrash crescendo and rapid-fire solo played at warp speed. “We always try to up our game,” notes Jordan. “This is the next step for all of us. There’s just constant forward motion, and we don’t want to compromise that. We want to keep going. We’re doing a lot of shit we haven’t done before in Better Lovers. I’m not going to spoil it for you, but get ready.” “For some reason, this song got me,” recalls Greg. “Once that happens, you have the toe of the dinosaur skeleton in the dirt. You start brushing it away, and soon you have a fucking T-Rex.” The name might give you a hint of what’s coming—or it might not. So, what does the future hold for Better Lovers? Well, it’s entirely in their control. Expect a lot of touring. Expect more music. Expect these five guys to leave a trail of destruction in their wake—really would you want anything less? “We feel like we’re going to explode if we sit around any longer,” Jordan leaves off. “This is my life’s work. I learned all of my lessons, passed all of the tests, and took all of the right turns and the wrong turns. It turns out what I thought were wrong turns got me here, and that’s all that matters. I have no regrets. I know this is what I’m supposed to be doing.” “I just want you to view this on its own merits,” Greg concludes. “I hope it reaches some new people. For me, the enjoyment is making the music and putting it out. The second it’s released, I don’t look back. You drop the bomb and keep flying the plane. You don’t circle back to see how much destruction you cause. You keep moving, which is what we’re going to do.” Artist Better Lovers Genre Metal / Classic Rock Label SharpTone Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Lie Between The Lines Your Misplaced Self A White Horse Covered In Blood Future Myopia Deliver Us From Life Drowning In A Burning World Everything Was Put Here For Me Superman Died Paralyzed At All Times Love As An Act Of Rebellion Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Better Lovers and more from Metal / Classic Rock View Product Quick View Better Lovers God Made Me An Animal Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | SharpTone | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 5th April 2024 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Better Lovers God Made Me An Animal £26.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: SharpTone SKU: 4065629713577 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 5th April 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Night Flight Orchestra, The Sometimes The World Ain’t Enough – Limited Edition Metal / Classic Rock | Nuclear Blast | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 29th June 2018 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Night Flight Orchestra, The Sometimes The World Ain’t Enough – Limited Edition £25.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Nuclear Blast SKU: 0727361434540 Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 29th June 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bullet For My Valentine Venom Metal / Classic Rock | RCA | 180g, 2LP Released 14th August 2015 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bullet For My Valentine Venom £21.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: RCA SKU: 88875117241 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 14th August 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Black Sabbath The End – Birmingham: 4th February 2017 Metal / Classic Rock | Eagle Vision | 3LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th November 2020 £32.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Black Sabbath The End – Birmingham: 4th February 2017 £32.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Eagle Vision SKU: 0879988 Formats: 3LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th November 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Skid Row B-Side Ourselves Metal / Classic Rock | Rhino | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th October 2017 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Skid Row B-Side Ourselves £13.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Rhino SKU: 0081227933562 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th October 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Golden Grass, The Coming Back Again Metal / Classic Rock | Listenable | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 25th April 2016 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Golden Grass, The Coming Back Again £17.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Listenable SKU: POSH212 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 25th April 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Taproot Gift Metal / Classic Rock | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 31st May 2024 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Taproot Gift £28.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1994C Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 31st May 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bring Me The Horizon 2004 2013 Metal / Classic Rock | BMG Records | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 9th February 2018 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bring Me The Horizon 2004 2013 £22.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: BMG Records SKU: 4050538349856 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 9th February 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Whitesnake Slide It In – 2019 Remaster Metal / Classic Rock | Rhino | 1LP Released 4th March 2019 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Whitesnake Slide It In – 2019 Remaster £30.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Rhino SKU: 0190295509903 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 4th March 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dio DIO at Donington ‘83 Metal / Classic Rock | BMG | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Lenticular Sleeve Released 23rd September 2022 £33.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dio DIO at Donington ‘83 £33.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: BMG SKU: 4050538688078 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Lenticular Sleeve Released Date: 23rd September 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Death Scream Bloody Gore Metal / Classic Rock | Relapse | 1LP Released 12th May 2017 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Death Scream Bloody Gore £16.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Relapse SKU: 0781676732418 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 12th May 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Metal / Classic Rock Start again
