Definitely Maybe ignite a new era with explosive single “Forgive Me (For Forgetting)”

Definitely Maybe, a rising alt-rock/emo-pop duo from Chicago, is back with a hot new single called "Forgive Me (For Forgetting)." It's one of the best songs on their upcoming six-track EP Beginning To End. The band is known for mixing anthemic choruses with raw emotional honesty. This new release shows how the band has changed in a clear and powerful way.

“Forgive Me (For Forgetting)” is a powerful example of the project's main idea: facing heartbreak head-on and finding the strength to move on. The song has the full range of sounds from the project, including the alt-rock punch, the emo-pop vulnerability, and the pop-punk energy that makes the duo's sound so unique. The vocals are full of emotion, and the production is modern and polished. It's a song for people who like to let go of their feelings and be honest with themselves when the dust finally settles.

Kevin McCombs (Sueco, Papa Roach, Story of the Year) made Across Beginning to End. Definitely Maybe explores the messy stages of heartbreak: denial, confusion, acceptance, and finally, renewal. "Forgive Me (For Forgetting)" is the moment when everything becomes clear: when old wounds stop defining the present and taking responsibility opens the door to healing. The song is the thematic anchor for the whole EP because of its soaring hooks and movie-like emotional weight.

The two say that the EP is their most honest and open work to date, a collection of songs that don't shy away from the truth about loss. "It's about dealing with everything, the pain, the denial, the acceptance, and finding some kind of hope on the other side," they say. This song has that spirit in it; it's bold without being reckless and vulnerable without being weak. That's the perfect balance that has made Definitely Maybe one of the most promising new acts of 2026.

"Forgive Me (For Forgetting)" is a fantastic first song that gives listeners a taste of what to expect from Beginning To End: emotional weight, explosive instrumentation, and a clear sense that the band is stepping into their strongest artistic identity yet. This song pulls people in from the first beat and reminds fans why music based on truth always hits home the hardest.

Beginning To End comes out on November 14, 2025, through DMG Recordings. If this single is any indication, Definitely Maybe are not just putting out another album; they're telling a story. One full of heartbreak, honesty, and the kind of growth that makes pain into strength.
