It takes a lot of time, effort, and mistakes to figure out who you are, where you’re going, and what you have to offer the world.

While you mull over the existential nature of that loaded opening statement, we invite you to check out “Long For This World,” the recent single from San Diego rock duo Bang Bang Jet Away. The upbeat single is teeming with indie rock sensibility, and is accented with angelic backing vocals and a touch of country western guitar twang.

Lyrically, vocalist Matt Binder finds himself at a crossroads between his raging, impassioned youth and the inevitable passage of time. With lyrics like…

“What is this thing I’m supposed to know?
Because I don’t know it.
What is this thing I’m supposed to understand?
Because I don’t understand it.”

…we observe a young man with a bit of an identity crisis, as he finds himself leveling up — albeit at times, kicking and screaming — to a new station in life.
