Only The Poets are entering their most experimental era. Fresh off a sold-out, ultra-intimate gig at London's legendary Scala, during which they performed eight new songs, the four-piece is now keeping the heat on with their latest single, "I Keep On Messing It Up."
A gut-punch of self-reflection wrapped in shimmering indie-pop brilliance, "I Keep On Messing It Up" sounds like heartbreak colliding with the glittery glow of afterthought. Written by Tommy Longhurst during a time of profound contemplation, the song features the band's first collaboration with fellow Reading act Dandelion. The result is a song that holds its scars high, providing an emotional release amid romantic ruin.
Only The Poets taps into that familiar sensation of regret, the feeling that keeps you up through the night, the mistakes you made replaying in your mind on a loop. Its chorus is as anthemic as it is intimate, with their soaring vocals soaring above driving beats and swelling melodies. It's a song meant for enormous singalongs that will feel even more impactful when the band brings it to their upcoming European tour this spring.
