[3] "Savages" was written by David Schmitt, Kyle Even, Eric Armenta, Tommy Cooperman and Luis Bonet whilst production was handled by Ian Kirkpatrick who also co-wrote the song.
The track still has the same sound as the group's last album incorporating mixes of a house-influenced drop, focusing heavily on the bass and a pulsing electronic beat with lyrics about youth and living life to its fullest.
[6] In 2016, the group released a mashup remix to "Savages" for free along with another single "Giants" on Beatport.
Andrew Wendowski of Music Mayhem Magazine gave a positive review calling the song "catchy and fun."
She ended off stating, "it's definitely fun and I certainly look forward to hearing what else they have in store for us, but I do not feel this is the best song they have put out in recent years.
