Sweden’s Bring the Hoax have launched their new single and video, Jonestown. Musically inspired by the song structures and melodies of Weezer‘s Pinkerton album, while lyrically drawing parallels between the Jonestown Massacre and modern-day lack of source criticism. Jonestown is a colorful and uplifting track featuring a huge chorus that perfectly blends sugar sweet melodies with distorted guitars. The single is the second and final one from Bring The Hoax‘s self-titled debut EP, which will be released via Lövely Records on the 28th of October.

Therefore, the verse became dynamic and then landed in a more straight chorus. The text is somewhat inspired by events that took place in the jungle, in the deepest of Guyana. Events that are still relevant in today’s society where we question less and less. In an age where source criticism never has been needed as much as now – but has been replaced by godliness to our prophets online – we wonder who we really should look up to, the ones we trust, or the ones we follow.“
