KUTX 98.9

Australian power-pop band The Summertimes is getting ready to release new music for the first time since 2023. “Save You Now” was officially released yesterday as the first single from their upcoming EP. This song was written to ask you one question: who is coming to save you, if anyone at all? Perhaps this track will lead you to ponder what you need saving from – or whether you need saving at all.

Our ship has landed on Evil Island. The locals are made-up by members of the Blood Brothers, OFF!, …And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead, and Glassjaw, and their culture is centered around what they call the Death Cultt, a satirical critique on consumerism and the corporate chokehold in the modern age. “T-Hexx” is all about the guitars; it's abrasive, spazzy, layered, and will have you scavenging the beaches for a sun-faded copy of Alternative Press circa 2003. But it gets better: the chorus features Fugazi's Guy Picciotto making his first vocal appearance in 25 years.
