Fresh off a Top three hit at Active Rock radio in the US and constant touring around their debut album, Start Again, Nevertel returns supercharged, having premiered their new single “OTHERSIDE” via SiriusXM Octane. Written and produced by the Tampa, FL band with Jeremy Michael (vocals) and Raul Lopez (vocals/producer) at the helm, they channel the blur of nonstop creation into something sleeker and more deliberate, hooks sharpened by the road, tension earned through repetition.
‘“OTHERSIDE” is where nostalgia meets creativity,” shares Lopez. “It felt like we tapped into our younger selves and wrote riffs and experimented with guitars a lot more on this one. Sonically, our goal was to mesh early 2000’s grunge with hip-hop/electronic production. We even recorded organic sounds like zippers, crushed water bottles, stomps, and Jeremy beatboxing over the first verse of the song.”
The music video for “OTHERSIDE” finds Nevertel siloed in a dark, damp warehouse, threatened by a strange mob banging at the walls outside and fighting their way in, the audience left to anticipate what’s next for the band as the swarm invades.
“The song is about the end of a long-standing bond; what it feels like going through it, and what it looks like on the other side of that ending.”
