April 27, 2023 – Premiering on BBC Radio 1’s Future Artists with Jack Saunders last night, Superlove have shared the video for their new single “Easier” - watch here. In addition to the hysterical video, Superlove have announced the follow-up to their debut album “Colours”; “follow:noise” will be released on 2nd June 2023 via Rude Records - pre-order the record here.
“Easier” is a song I wrote about 3 years ago now so I’m glad we got a chance to revisit it and make it work alongside a bunch of new songs. Nothing better than sitting on a song for that long to then take it to the band and turn it into something like this. It gives it such a new lease of life like getting the same excitement of writing it the first time round.”
Jake continues: “I wrote the song about a time when I was struggling a lot. I had a lot of questions about myself that I could never seem to get an answer for, I was always looking ahead to a time where my head would feel a lot clearer and how nice that might be in the future. Not to get too cheesy here, but writing this song helped me look forward rather than dwell on stuff whilst also helping change my outlook on certain situations in life that were maybe slowing me down. So cheers to songwriting as it does genuinely help you get a load off your mind.
My favourite story about making this song is when we were away recording and I said to Jon, “Oh yeah remember we need a mad like guitar solo that doesn’t sound like a conventional guitar solo for this bridge section” and like 20 minutes later he had recorded what you hear now and I just laughed at how nailed on he got it. Genuinely one of my favourite bits in any song we’ve ever done.”

Taking inspiration from across the entire musical spectrum, Superlove have gone all out on the video for Easier. The band explain: “Our main inspiration behind the video was blink-182’s all the small things video, they are all dressed up miming the track in different music video formats and we just loved that their band personalities were captured in video as well as the music.
For this video, we wanted to include the early 60s, hair metal, country folk and the beastie boys intergalactic video as well as our true selves. I’ll be honest there is no reason behind those references. I just thought they would be the most fun to dress up in. There’s a lyric that talks about wishing sometimes you could be someone else and we thought this would be a fun way of including that by having us flick through the channels to these made up music videos.
We’ve never felt restricted in terms of what we can do with our music videos. When it comes to deciding on what to do for a video we always think about what would be the most fun thing first and foremost. We always want our videos to be an extension of our relationship we have with each-other so keeping it light, messing around and having a proper laugh is always the key for us.”
