Like Pacific have released a b-side from their debut full-length album, Distant Like You Asked, which was released in 2016 via Pure Noise Records. Fans can listen to “Hands Tied“, which features Andrew Neufeld of Comeback Kid now below.
On the song, vocalist Jordan Black shares, “This song was crazy when we recorded it. Was wild to have Andrew Neufeld on a track. I must have listened to Wake the dead and Broadcasting all through high school. I’m glad it’s seeing the light of day. Was probably the angriest I was when recording DLYA. After the death of my grandmother and a manipulative ex, it definitely was an abrasive one.”
Like Pacific formed in 2010 in Toronto, Ontario. The five-piece bonded over a shared love of hard-hitting melodic rock, eventually adopting the motto “stay pissed” to describe their approach. After releasing two EPs, the band signed with Pure Noise Records in 2014, which has been their home ever since. Over the past six years, the band has released two full-length albums, the first of which landing on Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart; has played festivals such as Warped Tour and Slam Dunk, and has shared the stage with artists such as Good Charlotte, State Champs, Trophy Eyes, and more.
