Life is a driveway, and 5ever want to host a cookout there all night long. The Boston band parks their effervescent pop-punk to soundtrack a backyard bash in their single and video “Life Is a Driveway,” which arrived earlier this week (August 5). The release bears no resemblance to Tom Cochrane’s 1991 song “Life Is A Highway,” nor Rascal Flatts’ reimagining of it — praise the lord — and instead wraps self-effacing lyricism around another of 5ever’s anthemic refrains. It’s a burger-flipping, slip-n-sliding surge of early aughts nostalgia, served with a Sam Adams summer ale and a twinge of yearning. Pull up to the festivities below.
