Alt-Rock Duo Child Seat Share Punchy New Single “If This Is The End”

Since forming back in 2021 during the pandemic, alternative rock duo Child Seat have been busy working on their debut full-length. The pair of Madeleine Mathews (MAWD) and Josiah Mazzaschi (Light FM, Bizou) wrote their upcoming album Bad Holiday entirely remotely. Set to release the collection on August 5th, the duo have shared their latest single “Is This The End”.

About the song, Child Seat share:

“If This is the End” touches on the negative effects the Pandemic began to have on love and relationships. Day-to-day life became a bit too redundant and conversations sometimes became stale and repetitive – only talking about the weather forecast for the day instead of interesting or exciting things ahead.

This soon turned into a toxic pattern of romanticizing a life before the Pandemic, when everything felt a bit more exciting and a new type of nostalgia for pre-2020 started to set in. It also can make you put past memories on a pedestal instead of being content in the present. 

It often felt difficult to feel excited about anything anymore – fearing that if this path was to continue – it could ruin a relationship. The idea of starting over again seems unfathomable”.

Influenced by the likes of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Arctic Monkeys, and the ’10s alt-rock scene, the punchy tune and its black and white music video bring listeners back to the decade – a time that perhaps was not perfect after all.
