Vibrant and evocative, ‘All for Nothing’ is a pretty impressive single. Packed with meaningful lyricism and an anthemic and expansive alt-rock sound, the single still retains a strong pop relatability, ensuring to appeal to a large audience. For some reason, we are getting some Dave Matthews band vibes in the chorus, perhaps a hint that Carrying Torches have quite an eclectic wealth of influences behind them.
Hailing from suburban Chicago, the band doesn’t indulge in a bucolic livery – even if they are surrounded by farmland. They go straight for a giant stadium-ready character, something that’s instantly noticeable in ‘All for Nothing’. Intense, punchy and electrifying, the track is an absolute banger, both on a sonic and songwriting level.
Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘All for Nothing’, Carrying Torches explain: “We seek to invite listeners to see their lives together as an adventure, while also acknowledging the reality of temptation and the complexity of life-changing decisions”.
