MakeWar have shared "Sails" from their upcoming sophomore record Get It Together, their debut on Fat Wreck Chords. The new record drops on Nov. 1 -- also the first day of The Fest 18, where they are scheduled to play.
Vocalist/guitarist Jose Prieto speaks to the originals of "Sails:"
Sails is probably the happiest song I’ve ever written. It’s about two people in love. They are both dealing with the daily grind, making ends meet, and dreaming about just quitting it all and escaping on a sailboat. Living life at sea. They deal with their daily grinds in different ways, together. It’s about doing what you love and not what you are supposed to, with a person that you love and supports you no matter what and vice versa. Life is a sailboat, and sometimes you need someone to steer the boat and someone to move the sail. You can do it alone. But it’s way more fun to do it together.
