Less Than Jake have released two new tracks – the brand new Empty Lines and an acoustic version of Dear Me. Both tracks feature on the upcoming deluxe edition of their album Silver Linings.
“When it came time to pick which tracks we were going to do acoustic versions of for the re-release, Dear Me was a definite stand out for me,” explains trombonist Buddy Schaub. “I knew its haunting lyrics and melodies would translate really well to the stripped-down acoustic world. It was also a chance to tap into and feature the emotional content of this song, especially with the uncanny way our three vocalists’ voices can blend in such a way as to seem almost otherworldly at times.”
“This song feels like a familiar classic, with catchy horns and driving rhythms,” adds bassist/co-vocalist Roger Lima of the new track. “Lyrically, I’m touching base with that all too familiar feeling you get when you trust someone and they let you down.”
Silver Linings (Deluxe Edition) is due for release on 21st October 2022 via Pure Noise Records, available to pre-order HERE.
