San Francisco rockers Big Light have released the first song off their forthcoming, yet-to-be-titled album. “Better Days,” an upbeat summer jam with sun-scorched guitar lines, is available for download in exchange for your e-mail below.

A statement posted to the band’s website reads:

In these dog days of summer, on the path to releasing a new album, we give you a song: “Better Days.” We chose our longest song, since we believe (in this instance) that more is better, and better is more… and we’re all hoping for more better days. It’s the first chapter – a melting foray into the apocalypse where love and science rule the body and a relentless dance beat is the only compass. It’s 2012, so let’s get our kicks in. We urge you to download & share (#betterdays, #biglight) this free music with all of your friends and allies. Thank you.
