here.On the song, singer Tony Cappocchi says: “‘Beautiful World’ is a song that touches on a lot of things I’m thinking about as a parent. I didn’t really think much about leaving behind a safe, clean planet before I had kids, so this song is a bit of a cautionary tale and a warning to people who might not share that perspective. Between war, pollution, and energy consumption, I worry that we’re at an unsustainable place, and I hope people will hear the song and maybe pick up a piece of trash that wasn’t theirs, or turn off the lights when they leave the house (I’m not expecting much). It’s also exciting collaborating with PINKNOISE because we’ve never done a feature of this scale before, so we’re really excited to show you what we made, especially with such a talented artist involved. They really elevate the song!”
“We’re also VERY excited to be coming back to the EU next year!” Cappocchi exclaims. “We love going over there; the venues, promoters, and fans alike treat us so well. There’s really nothing like it, and we couldn’t be more grateful to be successful in that market.”
‘Beautiful World’ is the latest single to be dropped from the upcoming record following ‘Razor’s Edge Collapse,’ ‘Brainrot,’ ‘Rebel Son Rise!’ and ‘AlgoRHYTHM.’
For a musician, nothing is more empowering than being part of a newly formed band with amazing chemistry and a batch of undeniable songs — and that’s reforming a popular, powerhouse act after thinking you’d never play together again. That’s why Dragged Under frontman and songwriter Tony Cappocchi, rhythm guitarist Sean Rosario, and drummer Dylan Roy are so excited about the band’s third full-length album, Social Battery: Low, which reunites the vocalist and songwriter with guitarist Ryan “Fluff” Bruce and bassist Hans Hessburg three years after both quit unexpectedly and acrimoniously, leaving the future of Dragged Under, at best, uncertain.
Fuelled by the volatile environment in which it was written, Social Battery: Low is a high-impact, hook-saturated blend of styles and textures — musically and lyrically — that builds on the band’s trademark hybrid of pop-punk and metalcore and launches it ever skyward. “The time off gave everyone perspective,” he says. “We realized that we were lucky to have been able to play shows and put out records in the first place. And we’re lucky to be in a position now to continue to do it. That got us pumped to make the best album we could make.”
“Our band was never better than it was with our core members — me, Sean, Hans, and Fluff,” says Cappocchi. “In a way, it’s like mom and dad got back together. And since they’ve been back, those dudes have been as committed to Dragged Under and as stoked about it as they were when they first joined. Knowing that only made us want to be bigger than ever.”
