"'For this album, I was going back to a lot of my earlier influences about 'break down the walls' or 'start today.' Regardless of whether you're into hardcore or youth crew, they're really cool records because they're speaking to the time and providing possible paths to a better future ... with mosh parts.'"
"'It's tough to talk about your own music and what it means, not only because I sometimes don't understand it myself but in a way it robs the listener of their own interpretation.'"
"'Get To It' is about 'getting to it', poking holes in the excuses for standing still. Procrastination is something I've struggled with my whole life so I'm always looking for a new mantra to help overcome my tendency to put things off."
"'Regenerate' is about finding new paths forward. It's a theme I think we all return to. No matter how well you play it, life will keep taking things away from you. It sucks but this is how we learn and grow as people, so it might be we're living the most when faced with having to get back up from a hard hit."
Quicksand will release their fifth album, Bring on the Psychics, on July 17th through Equal Vision Records. The band has released two singles, 'Get to It' and 'Regenerate'. Walter Schreifels emphasized the album's energy, inspired by earlier influences. The singles reflect a high-energy, straightforward approach with positive themes. 'Get To It' addresses procrastination, while 'Regenerate' focuses on resilience and personal growth. The album promises to showcase a broader range of the band's sound, drawing from their complete history.
