Today American indie-rock outfit, Other Lives release their brand new single, "What’s It Gonna Take", the latest to be taken from their forthcoming 5th studio album Volume V - out via Play It Again Sam on October 10.

 

"What’s It Gonna Take" was written immediately after the Ukraine invasion and taps into universal feelings.  

 

Frontman Jesse Tabish has said, “’What’s It Gonna Take’ is not a pacifist song, it’s about defending your homeland against aggression.”

Volume V signifies the latest chapter in the ongoing story of Other Lives, their fifth record of magnificent musical and emotional depth. From the first notes of previous single "Mystic," it’s clear that the cinematic breadth of their arrangements and melodies has risen several dynamic notches, with a fuller orchestrated reach and more towering drama across the album’s eight songs and two instrumentals - evidence of the band’s hunger to keep progressing while retaining the essence of what makes Other Lives so unique and irresistible.  

 

The band’s creative core, multi-instrumentalists Jesse Tabish (also their lead singer), Jonathon Mooney and Josh Onstott, emerged in the early Noughties from the rural township of Stillwater, north of Oklahoma City, west of Tulsa and east of the Carl Blackwell and Lake McMurtry lakes, from where they made their self-titled debut album and 2011’s Tamer Animals, their debut album for PIAS that inspired MOJO magazine to label them, “The next must-have pastoral American sensation.”   

  

The trio then moved out west to Portland where they recorded their 2014 album Rituals and then 2020’s fourth album For Their Love, mostly captured in the vicinity of Oregon’s Cooper Mountain region, with Tabish’s wife Kim becoming a vital part of Other Lives, adding not just instrumental and songwriting skills but multi-layered backing vocals to enrichen Jesse’s gorgeous plaintive presence.   

  

When the pandemic isolated the Tabishs from the other band members, the couple collaborated to create Jesse’s solo album Cowboy Ballads Part 1, released in 2022 after they had moved back to Stillwater. It’s also the location for Volume V, even though Jesse and Kim have moved on to Cleveland, Ohio while Jonathon lives in New York City and Josh in Los Angeles.
