If you were ever laid up in a hospital bed, seeing people with the same condition as you never leaving, what would that do to your will to fight? Would it inspire you to keep going, or would it make you want to throw in the towel? And if you made it out, how would you treat the rest of your life?

For one musician, he lived this exact scenario over the past few years, going from hospital bed to being unsure if he would make it. But a mantra of "I've Felt Better" kept him driving to not only get better, but to see life as one of getting people excited to hear his music and just be proud of who he is, positively impacting the people he loves. And that, is winning life.

Matt from the Britist post-hardcore, alt rock band Dinosaur Pile-Up joins the Chord Progresion Podcast with the new album, I've Felt Better, due out on August 22nd. Get ready for it as on this episode, we dive deep into:


- Matt's story of being laid up in a hospital for years to succeeding in health, and learning that the imporant thing in life is bettering the lives of the people you love and the people that you can touch in life.


- The reaction from fans given on the new music, as well as a deep dive into "My Way" which might be the most inventive song written in the past 5 years.


- A selection of non-singles on this album that Matt thinks you should be sure to listen to on release day.
