The Race – “Best Is Yet To Come”

Knowing indie rock band The Race has a new single out called “Best Is Yet To Come”, and it feels like a heavy, honest sigh of relief. They took a sixteen-year break, during which the guys ended up with ten kids between them, and you can hear that shift in perspective all over this thing. They recorded it in their own garage studio, and that setup gives the track a darker, looser edge than their older albums.

The song moves from these quiet, tense moments into big, surging hooks that give you a massive sense of release. It relies on twin guitars and a slow, patient build that feels totally earned rather than manufactured for radio. The band wrote this after watching friends and family go through the normal ups and downs of life. It comes from a desire to see the people you love find a calmer place, and that hope anchors the whole sound.

It is the first track from a four-part project they are releasing this year. Honestly, it is just a great, reflective rock song that handles the messy parts of growing up without trying to sugarcoat anything. If you want to keep tabs on the rest of the project as it rolls out, go find The Race on their socials and give them a follow to stay updated.
