Candy Hearts Change Name to Best Ex; Share New Song

Candy Hearts

Candy Hearts have decided to change their name to Best Ex. They’ve released the song “Girlfriend” and talked with Billboard about the changes:

That was always my thing — I’m powerful despite my anxieties. I think over the past five years — after the amazing whirlwind my band has been through that I still can’t believe even happened — it really transformed from an extension of myself to an extension of my anxiety and not much else.

Yeah, fuck right off. I once heard he cried when his band locked him out of the studio during a recording session for one of their shitty albums because even they couldn’t stand him.
