The music video for Versus The Worlds’ first new single ‘Roadsick/Roadsick’ is out. With it the band builds a bridge to their last album ‘Roadsick/Homesick’ – the song is stylistically similar to their ‘advanced pop-punk’, which already goes slightly in the emo direction. On their upcoming album The Bastards Live Forever (May 2023) Versus The World show their finesse in post-punk as before.

The band consisting of prominent members of bands like Lagwagon or Good Riddance, is on European tour this summer.

‘I can’t tell you how much work went into this collection of songs. I’d always been taught that if what you were working on wasn’t (what you thought) was your best… start over. Never put anything into the world that you were not absolutely sure of.’, says singer Donald Ashley Spence. 

And that is what happened: ‘The Bastards Live Forever’ is due May 2023 via SBÄM Records and consists of 11 songs crafted to perfection. VTW’s unique style of melodic post-punk elevates every member’s skill from their other projects including Chris Flippin of Lagwagon. Obviously Versus The World are not all about musical craft but you can hear a passion and an urge to scream out deeply rooted feelings in every syllable throughout the record.
