GETTING HIGH AND CHASING GIRLS.

We first heard Bleachers behind closed doors at Sony Towers last summer, but today at long last the new project from Fun‘s Jack Antonoff takes its first steps into the world with debut single “I Wanna Get Better”. Swinging for the fences on their first at bat, “Better” is a piano-driven epic that shines like the rough gems of the Killers early output with all the shades of The Boss that you’d expect from a Jersey kid now living in the big city. Somehow that massive chorus (“I didn’t know I was lonely ’til I saw your face”) feels like it belongs in the ’90s, the ’00s, now and tomorrow all at the same damn time, and if this isn’t sync gold for every young adult coming-of-age film this year (wonder if these guys know anyone at Girls?), then we don’t know what is. Get familiar below.
