The Pretty Wild Unleash New Single "Afterlife"

The Pretty Wild have released a new single, "Afterlife", featuring Magnolia Park, taken from their forthcoming debut album zero.point.genesis, set to arrive on November 21 via Sumerian.

It "circles the idea of star-crossed souls bound by something ancient and unbreakable. Conceptually it’s plucked from the kind of love you find in mythology and old tragedies, where you have this obsessive devotion and destruction. It isn’t perfect, but it's dark, beautiful and eternal."

According to Jyl, "Afterlife explores the idea that love dynamics are rooted in co-dependent magnetism and resonance patterns," and asks, "What happens when obsession doesn’t end with death, but carries your soul into magnetising eternal dynamics?" The result is described as "a pop-metal requiem" that is "kinda tragic and romantically glitchy."

Author's summary: The Pretty Wild debut album is coming.
