Crows share final single 'Is It Better?' from incoming album 'Reason Enough', out Sep 27th

"We wrote most of the album while I was going through a difficult year of major personal changes. ‘Is It Better?’ is a homage to the friends and family who helped guide me through it. It’s also a reflection on having gone through something and not coming out unscathed - dealing with the damage I picked up along the way, and accepting my new reality." 

Working once again with Manoela Chiabi (Tove Lo, SG Lewis, FLO, Depeche Mode, IDLES, Future Islands) for the video, he says “When I heard 'Is it better?', I thought there was something so incredibly absurd about the lyrics and the title that poses an impossible question. I started to think about a man that feels dead inside and just wants to escape life, but not even at his own funeral he can find peace, and as such he finds himself in some sort of a loop.

This attempt to divorce ourselves from the world is actually what represents the inescapable human condition. As the song is very catchy and upbeat, leaning into the absurd with ridiculous humour and playfulness was fun and interesting to explore - having Crows as cameos getting into the most stupid fight ever over a double dipper was so gratifying! It was by far one the funniest experiences I've ever had on set.”

In support of the release of 'Reason Enough', Crows will tour the UK/EU this October into November, with tickets on sale now here
