Los Angeles four-piece, The Interrupters, have released their new single “Anything Was Better.” The track marks the second single pulled from the group’s eagerly-anticipated fourth album, In The Wild, set to drop on August 5 via Hellcat/Epitaph Records. While the 14-track opus reflects a story of survival and resilience from the band, the album’s opening track “Anything Was Better” effortlessly sets the tone across In The Wild and offers a personal account of lead vocalist Aimee Interrupter’s strength despite her struggles.

“This song is the story of my escape from not necessarily a location but from the pain and trauma of my upbringing,” Aimee Interrupter shares. “It’s also a story of hope and seeking refuge in the unknown. I said goodbye to everyone and everything I ever knew because in my mind anything was better than where I was from.”
