In 2021, Pet Symmetry returned with the album Future Suits. The band – led by Into It. Over It.’s Evan Weiss – went on tour earlier this year, and today they’re back with a new song called “Big Island.”
“In February 2021, Pet Sym traveled to a remote cabin in southern Illinois to write and record what will be our 4th full length…”, the band says. “This is not a roll out album! It’s not done yet, but we want to share a song from that session with you as a gift for being awesome fans. Here is “Big Island”, a song about travel and love. Something we all need. Enjoy.”
The emo summer anthem is a blast of energy with crushed drinks and a sense of infinity. His Bandcamp notes that the lines “Aloha! Get dressed!” are taken from Drive Like Jehu’s “Luau”: “Rest easy Rick,” they write, referring to Drive Like Jehu frontman Rick Froberg who died at 55 in July Listen to “Big Island” below.
