Chico blends together hardcore and alt sounds that fans of the likes of Militarie Gun and Angel Du$t will love. The bands newest track ‘Too Late’ is fast and melodic and will quickly end up in your repeated playlist.
Rangel shares on the song’s lyrics:
“I wrote this song when I was extremely broke and depressed about it. It’s about the way I envy people who are able to just live a simple life. It’s a pretty self explanatory song, but I guess one of the underlying themes is it feels like the system over us is designed for us to not look past what’s in front of us. Go to work, distract yourself until the next thing, and do that everyday – where the lyric ‘throw away my brain’ comes from. ‘Thrown away everyday,’ everyday we say no to what we want in order to make enough money to barely make rent. But that’s just what we were born into so we deal with it until one day we maybe don’t have to.”
Starting May 7th, Chico will head out on a short west coast run with support from Dreamcast and Free Concern. On September 25th the band will join Death Lens on tour through Texas and California. Full dates below.
