With an excitingly reminiscent sound, Two Door Cinema Club is returning with what looks to be a fantastic new album, alongside this new anthem for the summer. They have been dropping smiley hints on their Instagram over the last few weeks before officially announcing new music and plenty of new tour dates in Europe and North America. The band has a relatively small media presence compared to other artists of their success level, with their music being far more well-known than the band themselves. Two Door Cinema Club is returning and so are our wonderful lives. After what has been a difficult and lonely couple of years for many, the lyrics “Take back your wonderful life” will resonate with many. It encourages listeners to release all of life’s petty stresses and focus on the beauty instead, with lyrics like “If you’re holding your breath it’s no wonder it’s yet to find you”.The song sounds so effortlessly cheerful that it just makes you want to dance along. The single has vibrant cover art that matches its energising lyrics and that classic Two Door Cinema Club frantic yet smooth, synthesised soundtrack.
