Unlikely Comrades Patient Sixty-Seven and Tired Violence Catch a Wave on Tongue-Tying New Track
Worlds away, separated by land, sea, and civilization, Australia’s Patient Sixty-Seven and America’s Tired Violence make an unlikely pair on the nostalgic new number, ‘Maybe The Jet Ski Investments Weren’t Such a Great Idea.’ Channelling post-hardcore passion and the soaring sentiment of aging metalcore, this is one track that heavy music fans won’t wanna miss.
Grinding their way out of the Western coastal enclave of Perth, Australia, Patient Sixty-Seven has made slow and steady progress in the alternative music scene since their 2016 debut, acting more the tortoise than the hare. Quite the opposite, Tired Violence–the moniker of Virginia-based musician Tyler Morris–has leaped headfirst into alternative stardom thanks to a velvet voice and viral moments, quickly capturing the heads and hearts of countless fans worldwide.
As Americans seek to beat the heat of a sweltering Summer, Aussies are surely on the hunt for a bit of Winter warmth. Well thankfully, ‘Maybe The Jet Ski Investments Weren’t Such a Great Idea’ blows hot and cold, worming its way between melodious refrains and reckless breakdowns; the tune’s unforgettable title is an obvious homage to the hardcore heroes of times past (and present), calling to mind the tongue-twisting anthems of early Emarosa, Dance Gavin Dance, Four Year Strong–full of fun and feeling! Polished, precise, the song’s engineering rings of modern magic while the music itself sounds like something made inside a memory.
Reflection on the relationship between the two parties, Patient Sixty-Seven comments:
“It was so much fun to collaborate with Tyler from the other side of the world. [We] are really excited for people to hear this song, it’s upbeat, it’s nostalgic and [we] think it blends some modern elements with the vibes of post-hardcore from yesteryear! We have been speaking about collaborating for ages so this song was the perfect segue to do just that and have a great time while doing so!”
So what on earth are you waiting for? Listeners: no regrets, just rock!
