Make Friends – I Lose, You Lose

This weekend’s indie banger comes courtesy of rising Bristolian four-piece group Make Friends.

New single ‘I Lose, You Lose’ presents listeners with a rousing rock production that is complimented with melancholic vocals, resulting in a sound that feels both emotive and energising in equal measures.

“‘I Lose, You Lose’ is a song about losing (shock)! The lyrics take you on a journey through anxiety and realisation that actually the person you’re with, wasn’t all you thought they were. The songs upbeat verses and build sections, symbolises that feeling of losing control over your thoughts, running through every situation that may have lead you to this breakup conclusion. But alas, you found solace in this breakup. Knowing you did all you could. That constant fact in your mind … ‘If I lose you, you lose me’. And somehow that made me feel better.”

So if you’re going through a tough time with love right now, hopefully this track will help ease the pain in some type of way.

Make Friends perform at the Twisterella Festival in Middlesbrough on the 12th October (tickets here), ahead of the release of their ‘Loaded Fun’ EP, which is out a month later on the 13th September.
