Boston’s pop-punk underdogs Trophy Lungs have finally announced plans to release their long-awaited Antique Records debut, Day Jobs. The album, which was announced at the top of 2015, will be available on September 18.
To celebrate the news, Trophy Lungs partnered with the fine folks at Vanyaland to premiere the lead single from the album. You can stream the track, titled “Day Jobs,” at the end of this post.
We have had the great fortune to hear an advance copy of Day Jobs and we believe it’s an album created with adults in mind. Too often pop-punk is written off as something for teens, but Trophy Lungs prove to be a rare exception. With lyrics about the realities of post-college existence conveyed through unflinching honesty and an undeniably infectious sound, it’s easy to imagine this band being everywhere in no time at all. Check out the song below and let us know if you agree.
Pre-orders for Day Jobs are available now through Antique Records.
