Sidewalk Prophets returns with “Hurt People,” the band’s first taste of new music since 2020’s The Things That Got Us Here. The megawatt anthem leans on the familiar adage, “hurt people, hurt people,” and underscores the virtues of grace — the kind that God’s love offers in spades. Doling out ample amounts of kindness, both for ourselves and others, the massive pop offering encourages listeners to extend forgiveness for the sharp words that often leave us feeling wounded and defensive. “Hurt People” officially introduces Sidewalk Prophets’ fifth studio album, arriving later this year.
