Infused with sparkly synths and chorus effect-laden guitars, and taking inspiration from artists like Spanish Love Songs, Turnover & Chris Farren, The Future is Not Bright marks a genre shift for Arms & Hearts whilst maintaining the same defiant wit and grit in their lyricism. Both personal and inherently political, over 12 tracks, The Future is Not Bright explores everything from the realities of identity, death, love, injustice, struggles with mental health and (metaphorically!) wanting to murder your boss, insisting on optimism in a cultural climate that demands cynicism and misery.

Tracklist:

1. Time Flies When it’s Meaningless 2. Bottom Line 3. Apologists 4. Ghost 5. Nothing Sacred 6. Val 7. I wanna kill Your Boss 8. Elvis Will do in a Pinch 9. Binaries 10. Sink, England, Sink 11. Hold Tight 12. The Future is Not Bright
