Emo-Punk German band Between Bodies share the first song since their debut EP „On Fences“ in 2019. It’s an emotional song about one’s own inadequacy to fundamentally and seriously change things.
Between Bodies hail from Cologne, Paderborn and Toronto. With their sound, which is heavily influenced by emo-punk bands from the 00s and early 2010s, the band quickly won a place in the hearts of a group of core fans. With the new song, Between Bodies are beginning a new chapter.
“In the past, I’ve often been unable to come to terms with being hurt by people I care about without ending the relationship,” explains singer and guitarist Christopher Schmidt, “trying to reflect every detail over and over again, analyzing problems and failing to do more than just talk. ‘Lucifer, I Wanna Be Everything’ is a song about one’s own inadequacy to really fundamentally and seriously change such behaviors. Getting a grip on feelings and habitual behavior is difficult. Really changing behaviors is even harder and I have the utmost respect for those who succeed,” he continues.
As for so many bands, the pandemic has had a major impact on Between Bodies’ creative work. Over the past two years, the band has used the time during numerous lockdown nights to tinker with new music using Dropbox folders and in Zoom sessions. A big challenge for everyone involved, as the band only released their very first songs shortly before the pandemic began and just managed to play a few concerts. A little over two years later, “Lucifer, I Wanna Be Everything” is the kick-off for much more to come.
