To give a taste of their upcoming album, Vows, Hot Water Music have chosen to highlight two collaborations with other punk bands. On “Remnants,” the band teamed with Turnstile frontman Brendan Yates and drummer Daniel Fang, and the musicians recorded “Fences” with Thrice. The album, which also contains collaborations with members of City and Colour, Alexisonfire, the Interrupters, and Farside, among others, will come out on May 10.
“Remnants” begins with a driving, funky, punky riff that allows Hot Water Music frontman Chuck Ragan to sing about supporting a friend through thick and thin.
