Two titans of their respective genres — alternative pop legends ALL TIME LOW and hard rock giants I PREVAIL — have joined forces on the new single “Hate This Song.” The collaboration seamlessly fuses the best of both bands, creating a track that is both unexpected and brilliant.
On paper, an ALL TIME LOW and I PREVAIL pairing might seem like a surprising combo, but the result is flawless. “Hate This Song” masterfully blends ALL TIME LOW’s infectious pop-punk melodies with I PREVAIL’s intense vocals and heavy riffs, delivering a breakup anthem that hits with both emotion and power. The song’s triple vocal approach, catchy chorus, and intense breakdowns promise to captivate fans from both camps.
ALL TIME LOW’s Alex Gaskarth shared the story behind the track: “‘Hate This Song’ has been in the works since we released Tell Me I’m Alive. It was a chance to try something cheeky and different with I PREVAIL, who we have tons of respect for. They brought their signature intensity, transforming the song into something unexpected — I see it as two sides of a coin dropping into a jukebox that’s about to spin this song on repeat.”
I PREVAIL’s Eric Vanlerberghe added, “ALL TIME LOW hit us up with a track and asked us to spice it up. We said yes right away. So happy it’s finally out — and I think we’re the first to put a blast beat on an ATL song!”
ALL TIME LOW’s journey from high school friends in Baltimore to global stars is a testament to their dedication and the deep connection they’ve built with their audience. With five consecutive Top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 and multi-platinum certifications, the band has solidified their place in pop-punk history. Rolling Stone even ranked their album So Wrong, It’s Right among the “50 Greatest Pop-Punk Albums” at No. 20. Their single “Monsters” (featuring blackbear) dominated Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart for 18 weeks, setting a record for the longest-charting song at the format.
I PREVAIL, known for their raw emotion and heavy sound, have become a driving force in modern rock. Their latest album, True Power, showcases the massive riffs and unforgettable melodies that have made them arena headliners. With two Grammy nominations — including “Best Rock Album” for Trauma — and billions of global streams, I PREVAIL have proven their staying power. Their singles “Hurricane” and “Bad Things” both topped Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, further cementing their dominance in the genre.
“Hate This Song” is a powerful collaboration that brings together two forces at the top of their game, uniting their unique styles to create something fresh and exciting. Fans of both bands are sure to be hooked.
