Band: PUP
Who: Fulminant punks from Toronto
who are gearing up for their 5th LP.

Track: GET DUMBER

New cutting cut from their forthcoming album, called Who Will Look After The Dogs? that comes our way on 2nd May. It features Long Island songsmith Jeff Rosenstock.

Stefan Babcock (frontman): “We recorded the vocals together, in the same room, facing each other. What that means is, we both had to nail it at the same time because we couldn’t really cut between takes. On the first take, he forgot a line in the second verse and said, ‘Ahhhhhh, lyrics’ instead. I couldn’t finish the take because I was laughing too hard. Anyway, he practiced singing the correct lyrics but then we decided those lyrics kinda sucked and he should just stick to ‘Ahhhhhh, lyrics’ because it’s funny and the song is called Get Dumber. We nailed it on the second take.”

Wake up people, carefully,
these punk pups bite.
