Eighty Ninety Announce Debut Album & Share New Single "Ruins"
"'Ruins’' is a reflection of the past, the choices we didn’t make and the 'what ifs’ 'that still linger," the duo explains. "We wanted to capture the ache of those missed opportunities and unspoken words and to reflect on our youth and the ruins we all carry with us. The rest of the album also explores how we shape our lives on the foundations of those ruins and their enduring impact on who we become."
Eighty Ninety Share New Single “The Hard Way”
Overflowing with raw emotion, "The Hard Way" is a contemplative, cathartic love song. The track opens with wistful piano chords and Abner’s tender vocals. As it continues, the song gathers momentum with additional synths, percussion, and guitar. "With the production, we tried to evoke the sense of the relationship being increasingly tested by life, increasing the instrumentation with every chorus, almost like we are trying to break the song," the duo explains. "But it holds — and by the end, we're hoping the swelling percussion and harmonies feel uplifting; there's beauty in hope."
Eighty Ninety Release New Single “Face Like a Sunset”
Abner elaborates on the new single: “It’s a song about the little moments when you realize you’re falling in love, and how the very moment you realize you want to spend forever with someone, you begin to feel the press of time. A sunset is beautiful partly because you know it won’t last.”
