Touting a nostalgic sound reminiscent of punk-leaning ’90s alternative, “do you love me?” is a catchy new track from sweethearts. The UK-based band note influences like Pavement, Weezer, and “personal favourites” The Pixies. Certainly sounding like a fit on the American Pie soundtrack, “do you love me?” wins over easily with fuzzy guitars, a harmonious vocal duet, and catching title-referencing chorus. “Or am I no one?” the vocals ask just prior to the chorus, building enjoyably to the chorus. A playful guitar-based bridge past the two-minute mark adds nicely. “do you love me?” is a fun blast of melodic nostalgia from sweethearts.
