Bearings Release New Single "Float Away" Feat. Derek Discanio; New Album 'Comfort Company' Out On November 7th

BEARINGS have released "Float Away" feat. Derek Discanio. The track is taken from their brand new album 'Comfort Company' out 7th November 2025 via Pure Noise Records.

"This is one of the first ones we really built out with the drums first. Mike had this great part and we built it out from there. Lyrically, it came together a little later, and there’s some obvious metaphor in there about being lost on things going on in your own life at times. We all need someone to bring us back down to earth sometimes" - Doug Cousins

Speaking about the upcoming record, frontman Doug Cousins said: “Comfort Company is for us the record that feels like coming back home. Some songs we wrote at a cottage together, others came from a basement. They all started somewhere honest and ended up back at the studio where we did our first album in the East End of Toronto. This album was working on music all day, walking to the beer store, then heading back to the windowless studio to relax before reading Kurt Vonnegut and eventually falling asleep on an air mattress. As we worked out what we wanted it to sound like we found ourselves wanting to make music that felt natural to us, something that we knew we’d connect with and be able to spill out on stage when the time came to perform it.”

About Bearings

Over the last decade, Bearings have been in near-constant motion. Since their 2017 debut EP "Nothing Here Is Permanent", the Ottawa-formed pop-rock quartet have released three beloved albums on Pure Noise — "Blue in the Dark" (2018), "Hello, It’s You" (2020), and "The Best Part About Being Human" (2023) — while touring worldwide with acts like Neck Deep, State Champs, Less Than Jake, and Set It Off. Their mix of crystalline melodies, buoyant rhythms, and bursts of urgency has connected with audiences everywhere they’ve gone.

That momentum fuels their fourth full-length, "Comfort Company", but this time the band turns their energy inward, exploring what it means to grow older in a world that never stops spinning. Written during long highway drives and quiet moments between shows, the album finds Bearings revisiting Room 21 in Toronto — the studio where they recorded their first EP and "Blue in the Dark" — with producer Kyle Marchant. It’s a full-circle return that let them reflect on how much has changed while reconnecting with their original spark.

Across its tracks, "Comfort Company" channels the chemistry that defines Bearings: the title track recalls the raw drive of Warped Tour days, “Quick Release” delivers a classic pop-punk hook with a fresh twist, and Derek DiScanio of State Champs guests on the bass-and-hi-hat-driven “Float Away”. Elsewhere, “Freaking Me Out” captures the tension of intrusive thoughts, “Feel Less” wrestles with fading emotions, and “Let Me Hate Myself” closes the album with all three vocalists intertwining. The result is Bearings’ most honest representation to date.
