LA’s Cemetery Sun has released a new song ‘Wish It Was Love‘ and video from their forthcoming EP scheduled for an early 2016 release. There is a big open space for a good band in the alternative rock scene and Cemetery Sun is filling that spot. They got traction with the last single (Hard Drugs) Fake Love and their new offering is just as catchy with its strong chorus and harmonies. The band recently partnered with Alterntive Press for the video premier and says this about the new single “Relationships can be toxic and deceiving. This song is about one of those relationships in which both parties want to make it work — but just can’t seem to.”
