New Friends Releases New Song “Doomed”
Canadian alt-pop band New Friends, consisting of Stefan Boulineau (vocals), Ayden Miller (keyboard), Cole Wilson (guitar) and Conrad Galecki (bass/drums), released a new song “Doomed” along with a music video.
The track was written by Conrad Galecki, Ayden Miller, Stefan Boulineau, Cole Wilson, Cassandra Dasilva, Brian Rivlin, and Jessica Nesbitt. Produced by Brian Rivlin. The accompanying video was directed by Keegan Boulineau.
The band said of the song, “Our new single, "Doomed," revolves around the idea of being self aware of the chaotic energy you bring into your love life. When relationship after relationship consistently fails, often we give up and say, 'Well I guess I'm just really bad at this 'love' thing.' This song calls out to any future lover, preparing them for the fact that you know how the story is going to go. 'Buy some flowers, write I'm sorry on that stupid little card / We'll be happy and in love and doomed from the start'”- They continued, “'Doomed' has a Y2K dance party vibe, with the song's upbeat nature playing a satirical role as you're almost dancing and partying to the fact that you've failed so many times at love that you deem yourself unloveable. While this song brings up a lot of serious issues we sometimes face in our love lives, we felt that the most therapeutic way of dealing with those issues is by not letting them bring us down. Acknowledge reality, smile, and worry about it tomorrow.”
