There’s a fine line between disorientation and revelation, and Almost Alive’s ‘Pieces Click’ thrives right on that edge.

The single is already making waves, and it’s clear why. Clocking in at a tight 2 minutes and 33 seconds, the track packs in more attitude, emotion, and musicianship than many full-length albums.

Songwriter and producer Collin Keller has shared his newest single “404 error,” a melancholy indie rock track with subtle pop sensibilities. The single captures a potent emotional resonance as Keller processes the feeling of growing up alongside someone, and eventually losing them. The title and hook’s reference to the “404 page not found” web error message reflects this emptiness felt when reflecting upon what once was. “404 error” is a heartfelt, intimate track, using digit
