Easy Life drop new two-track release titled 'who gives a f**k?'

Words: Sam Geary 

Leicester five-piece Easy Life have unveiled a new double-sided single, dubbed 'who gives a f**k?'

The two tracks are the new three-minute 'Pop Tarts', and older number, the band's breakout, 'Nightmares' - with the latter spawning the opening lines, "Who gives a fuck about my nightmares?"

Blending influences of hip-hop, jazz horns and the band's innate ear for pop hooks, 'Nightmares' is an uplifting but lyrically intimate look at the fragility of mental health (and a young generation, as the lyrics put it, with “everybody on the brink of crisis”). Flip-side, 'Pop Tarts', combines quickfire rap and hazy R&B into an off-kilter love song; again showcasing Easy Life's way with the minutiae and occasional absurdity of everyday life.

The songs come in the wake of May's ‘see you later maybe never’ demo release of 'peanuts' and 'petty crime'.
