The track explores the same themes behind the album, including the growth of political and cultural intolerance in Australia. The trio&#8217;s frontman Richard Pike explains:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;To me, Another Life is about expectation and things falling short of that expectation. It&#8217;s about middle class &#8216;aspirational&#8217; desire and their ultimate dissatisfaction. And it&#8217;s about my own dissatisfaction with political leaders&#8217; short-sighted and archaic regression of ideas, eating up a country&#8217;s own future. Aside from the political rant against new conservatism &#8211; which it is &#8211; it&#8217;s also a personal look at human nature and a hopeful pining for another life. It&#8217;s also got a great beat.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now listen to &#8216;Another Life and watch out for the release of <em>New Spirit<\/em> on February 17th via <a href=\"https:\/\/felte.bandcamp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Felte<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/301734936&amp;color=c41709&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">PVT put together the latest instalment of our monthly <a href=\"https:\/\/castthedice.org\/?p=11657\">mixtape<\/a>.
