Trails and Ways Announce New Album 'Own It', Drop "My Things" New Video

Oakland, CA indie rock/pop band Trails and Ways have announced they will release their sophomore full-length album titled 'Own It' on October 7.

The follow-up to last year's 'Pathology', roars back with anti-capitalist wit in songs that range from dreamy bossanova pulse to rebellious post-punk strut, it strides out of those confines, unafraid to offend, and commits to anti-capitalism with gleeful abandon. With a defiant spirit of personal and political openness, Brower Brown wrote Own It in opposition to the way he felt capitalism tried to turn him defensive, vain, and selfish; through inspiration by Frankfurt School social theorists to look critically at the ways capitalism shapes us psychologically, as well as the Grace Lee/Jimmy Boggs American radical tradition, where personal transformation is the necessary first step to anti-capitalist revolution.

The band have also aired the video for their newest single "My Things", it was directed by Gonzalo Eyzaguirre.
