In a “blink and you’ll miss it” kinda thing, Maryland hardcore act Jivebomb have released the second single from their upcoming EP. “Illusion of Choice” clocks in at 48 seconds long but, as you’d expect, is nonetheless awesome for it.
The track follows up the lead track from the EP, Primitive Desires, which is due out 07 Oct 2022, and will be the band’s first release on their new home Flatspot Records. The album follows up their Sep 2021 JVBM EP.
Vocalist Kat says about the new single:
It’s just chaos and words that are meant to evoke some sort of feeling or reaction. All in the name of thinking we’ve ever had an original thought or stance. there’s no true normal/right decision-making when the circumstances were not normal or right to begin with.
