Oh boy, are you guys ready for some super exciting news? 🤩🎉 The legendary post-hardcore band LETLIVE. might, maybe, possibly, potentially release new music 🎶🤔! We know, we know, it’s been a whole year since they reunited for their “farewell” tour 🙄, and we’re all still reeling from the shock of them not actually saying goodbye 🤷♂️. But seriously, who needs new music when you can just keep touring and playing the same old songs over and over again 🎸👀?
In a recent interview with Rock Sound‘s James Wilson-Taylor at the Download festival in the UK 🇬🇧, Jason Aalon Butler (the vocalist, for those who don’t know 🙅♂️) was asked about the possibility of new music from the band. And his response was, well, let’s just say it was a real thrill-ride 🎢👀: “Yeah, we’ve certainly discussed it, because we’ve had such a good time, and we have understood how much we enjoy not only playing this music as this band, but with each other 🤗.” Wow, what a wild ride of emotions 🎠👫!
But wait, there’s more! 🤔 Butler went on to say that the band has done an “internal audit” (whatever that means 🤷♂️) and realized that they actually love each other 💌, which is, you know, totally not a requirement for being in a band 🙄. And if they can create something that will have a “proper impact” 🌟, they might, just might, release new music 🎶. But only if the climate is right 🌡️, because, you know, the world is just missing that one special thing to make it complete 🌎👀.
The current touring lineup of LETLIVE. consists of Jason Aalon Butler on vocals, Jeff Sahyoun and Jean Francisco Nascimento on guitar, Ryan Seaman on drums, and Skyler Acord on bass 🎸👥. Because, you know, the most important thing about a band is the number of people on stage 🤣.
Last year, LETLIVE. reformed for a global “farewell” tour titled “Sincerely Yours” 💌, which was, of course, a total joke 🤣. The band’s last album, “If I’m The Devil” 🤴, was released in 2016, and they broke up in 2017 🚫. But who needs a break when you can just keep on trucking 🚚?
Prior to last year’s reformation, the band’s final lineup consisted of Butler, Sahyoun, Ryan Jay Johnson, and Loniel Robinson 🙅♂️. And if you’re wondering what LETLIVE. is all about, well, let me tell you 🤔: it’s about healing from anger 🙏, progressive politics 🗳️, and spotlighting issues that affect everyone 🌎. Wow, what a unique and not-at-all-overused theme 🙄.
So, there you have it 🎉: LETLIVE. might release new music, but only if the stars align 🌠 and the world is ready 🌎. In the meantime, let’s all just keep on waiting 🕰️ and hoping 🤞 that they’ll actually follow through on their promises 🤝. 🎸👏
