SoCal Alt-Emo Act Glow & the Dark Share New Single “The W” Ahead Of Upcoming EP ‘holy shit’
Southern California alternative emo group Glow & the Dark, lead by vocalist/songwriter AJ Peacox, are releasing their new EP holy shit on November 11th. Just a few days away, the group have shared their latest single “The W”, featuring Lady Captain.
“This was the first song I wrote for the EP”, AJ shares. “I had a journal full of lyrics when I came back from a long tour, so I started organizing the lyrics by theme. ‘The W’ came pouring out all at once. Most of the lyrics happened to already be on the same page in my notebook“.
With a strong nostalgic feel coming through the melancholic acoustic guitar chords and Peacox’s growling serenade, “The W” plays on the theme of a love story with a small twist. Elaborating further, AJ adds, “The song is about the W hotel in Hollywood – an unmistakable landmark in LA that used to hold good memories for me, but now feels cursed. My favorite part of ‘The W’ is how you might think it’s a love song until you hear the very last line.”
Listen to “The W” below, and stay tuned for holy shit out November 11th via Dark Horse Coffee Records.
