Bringing together catchy choruses, heavy riffs and a youthful infectious energy, Jack The Envious have a delicious post-hardcore sound.
We are now delighted to bring you the news that Jack The Envious will release their second EP ‘In Your Own Way‘ as a free digital download on the 14th of July.
On the EP, Jack The Envious comment:
“We’ve got so many songs in our arsenal at the moment, it’s been crazy to choose only five songs, but we wanted to keep it simple. Bands change all the time, a little here, a little there. With that being said, we wanted to capture it yet give the listeners who already know us that familiar JTE vibe. The songs are, in a way, very different from each other, but at the same time contain the guidelines of a JTE song.
We never settled on one style of writing, and every time it’s a different journey but with the same friends.”
Can’t wait for the new EP to drop? Well you’re in luck, as Jack The Envious have just released the first single, ‘Begging For More’ along with an amazing lyric video.
Want to know more about ‘Begging For More’? Hear it straight from the band:
“Most of our songs try to give the listener a personal story, but also one that they can take and relate to their own lives. We think this song delivers this kind of writing more than others.
For us, ‘Begging For More’ speaks about the struggle in modern society. That constant conflict of doing something wrong, while knowing it’s wrong, these things can be something small or something on a global scale. Although it doesn’t come to criticise it more than it does to resonate with it while showing the hypocrisy in these matters, as we’re not exceptional.
The Lyric video aims to bring the words we wrote to life, we went totally DIY on this one. Guy (Guitar) sat for days learning how to make everything, it’s been truly amazing watching him work. The video is very graphical, every word comes to life and the in-betweens gives you the real vibe of the song.”
Formed in 2012 by Nir Perlman (Vocals), and Guy Avnon (Guitar), Jack The Envious were later joined by Guy Checkarov (Bass) during their military service. Between 2011 and 2014, Jack The Envious focused mainly on perfecting their live show and writing songs, struggling to mix both national service and band life together.
After releasing their debut EP, ‘Pull You Down’, last year the band had a few very successful local shows while maintaining new content releases. Aiming to branch out, they left everything behind and moved to the UK on January 2017.
Jack The Envious are:
Nir Perlman – Vocals/ Screams
