Albany emo band Hate Club is releasing their first full-length album, Tightly Wound, on August 13, and we're premiering lead single "Eat More." "Feeling stuck is a common theme we write about," the band tells us. "'Eat More' explores the dichotomy of wanting to improve your life but feeling comfortable making familiar decisions like staying up too late, forgetting to eat, or struggling to get up off the couch.
