“I Won’t Give Up” picks up right where they left off and identifies itself as another strong single from the Santa Cruz, CA quartet. The song can be described as thematically positive and reviving. “I Won’t Give Up” kicks off with immediate horns and ska elements, coupled with bright instrumentals and strong vocal contributions from Geoff Weers before HIRIE enters to harmonize with the uplifting chorus while displaying her ever-impressive vocal abilities halfway through the track.
Details for Moment are starting to become clearer as the release date approaches. In addition to the release of “I Won’t Give Up” to online retailers and streaming services on March 10, The Expendables also announced that the new album will feature collaborations from hip-hop favorite Tech N9ne and Micah Pueschel from Iration.
The band also unveiled the full track listing via their Facebook page, however the confirmed order of the tracks and album cover art remain to be seen. The full track listing will consist of the following: “Stay Now” — featuring Eric Rachmany. “I Won’t Give Up” — featuring HIRIE. “Goodbye For Now” — featuring Tech N9ne. “Without Love” featuring Micah Pueschel of Iration. “Thinking ‘Bout This One,” and “Pace Yourself.”
