The Rescues land “Everything’s Gonna Be Better Next Year” like a wink and a promise, which is exactly what a rough week needs. The title sounds optimistic; the chorus turns that into something sturdy and singable.
Guitars arrive bright and clean, the drums keep a brisk road-beat, and the harmonies stack in that polished, open-road way that makes the whole track feel bigger than its parts. Everything snaps into place without sounding slick.
For anyone staring down a long commute, a rent check, or a dashboard full of bad news, the song offers a rare useful mood: forward motion. Summer traffic gets lighter with it on, and the miles feel a little less personal.
