Listen to crushed’s excellent new single Coil, taken from their upcoming debut EP, extra life.
Following 2022 debut single Waterlily, U.S. dream-pop duo crushed have unveiled another new track: Coil.
Taken from their upcoming EP extra life, the song is “about the mixed feelings caused by reflecting on a toxic relationship, and wondering if you’ve truly done enough work and are ready to leave it all behind,” says Shaun Durkan. “Nostalgia is dangerous, and can make even a really damaging and painful period of life seem beautiful and appealing.
“We wrote Coil May 2022, right around the time I had hit two years of sobriety. To me personally, it’s about my relationship with drugs and how the highs and lows of active addiction permanently change how you see the world around you. It’s about wondering if you can untether yourself from those skewed memories, see active addiction for what it truly was, and move forward. I think all good love songs can be read as drug songs and vice-versa.”
extra life is due out on February 10.
