Trash Boat have unveiled a brand-new single, Better Than
Yesterday.
Taken from the band’s next album Heaven Can Wait (which will be
released on October 4), their newest effort “centres around the classic saying ‘comparison
is the death of joy’,” according to vocalist Tobi Duncan. “It creeps into
everything I do, who does what I do better than me, who makes more money, who’s
better looking, who’s stronger, who’s in a bigger band, focusing on everything
that I haven’t (yet) managed to achieve and putting myself down because of it,
rather than bigging myself up for what I have already done or focusing on
achieving more.
“This feeling can make you lose faith with anything creative and
has crept into my mind regarding music multiple times,” Tobi admits. “The song
is a reminder to not try to be better than anyone other than yesterday’s self,
the only person you should focus on beating!”
Well said, Tobi! Listen to Better Than Yesterday now:
