A little fuzzier and edgier than before but just as appealing as their previous dance numbers, White Arrows‘ latest single “We Can’t Ever Die” is a pummeling electro-rock anthem with an accessibly shout-along chorus. That catchy hook doesn’t come without layers of guitar and synths though. There’s a gnarly guitar solo toward in there dancing around with the percussion that also once again proves the L.A. quintet is adept at mixing textures and genres. “We Can’t Ever Die” is the track that possibly echoes earlier hits such as “Coming or Going” the most, but it’s still clear that the band has become a bit more adventurous here. White Arrows’ album “In Bardo” is slated for a Sept. 16 release via Votiv.
