5-Seconds-Of-Summer - 2011

On “2011” 5 Seconds Of Summer Looks Back At The Beginning Of Their Career After Ten Successful Years Together. Drummer Ashton Irwin Has Posted A Drums Teaser Of “2011” Months Before The Song’s Release. The Band Announced The Song Via Their Socials On 30 November 2021 As A Celebration For The Group’s Ten Year Anniversary "This Friday We’re Releasing A New Song Called “2011 ” Just For You. We Wrote “2011” To Celebrate 10 Years Of This Band 10 Years Of Adventures Through Life And Most Of All 10 Years Of You Our Fans. We Love You And We Can’t Wait For The Next 10. Out Everywhere December 3rd." On An Interview With Random 30 Countdown Michael Clifford Commented "It Was Really An Amazing Experience. We’ve Worked With John Feldmann On This Who We Did Our First Two Albums With. This Song Specifically For Us We Needed To Make That It Had To Have That Old School 5SOS Feel But Also Felt Reminiscent Of The Third And Fourth Record But Also Felt Like It Was Pushing Fowards As Well. So We Wanted It To Be This Mix Of Everything. Feel Like A Throwback But Also Moving Fowards At The Same Time. We’re Really Really Proud Of This One And We Bloody Nailed It! The Narrative Of The Song Is Just You Have This Tendency To Look Back On Things With This Super Rose Coloured Glasses Way Of The Past. It’s Interesting Because We Were Finding The Concept Of Saying 2011 And It’s Not Really That Long Ago But If You Think About It You Were Probably So Different. My Favourite Part About It Is That There’s No Other Band That Could Release A Song Like This And For It To Make Sense. We Connect With It Our Fans Definitely Connect With It And Some Of Our Australian Fans Who Maybe Have Been There Since 2011. It’s Also Fun In A Song Being Able To Just Play Into The Fact That 2011 Was Maybe A Better Year. You Could Get Jaded And You Grow Up And Things Fer A Little Bit More Serious So Why Not Look On The Past Funly?"
