American Wrestlers Debut New Song “Amazing Grace,” Announce Tour Dates
Images via Evan Cuttler, Fat PossumAmerican Wrestlers, previously a Paste Best of What’s Next pick, have released a new single ahead of their forthcoming sophomore LP, Goodbye Terrible Youth, due out on Nov. 4 via Fat Possum. The glimmering, triumphant single is the second song released ahead of the band’s new album, which you can pre-order here.
Frontman Gary McClure said in a press release:
I wrote this song about having faith and having none. Being lonely in the bigger picture. The rewards and perils of Nationalism and religion. It’s about a certain shade of America, but really it’s an aspect of humanity which gets geographically pinned down. It’s about the election and the arbitrary shards we grab from the breaking chaos to glue together an identity. It’s about choosing misery over love as a solution to death.
