MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK have announced a new album!
Titled The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World, the upcoming album from the Minneapolis, Minnesota-based veteran pop-punk band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2015’s Panic Stations, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Epitaph Records.
To record the album, the band reunited with Sean O’Keefe [FALL OUT BOY, PLAIN WHITE T’S] at the legendary Chicago studio, Electrical Audio. Featuring cameos from FALL OUT BOY’s Patrick Stump (who also co-wrote the song Particle Physics), CITIZEN’s Mat Kerekes and Deanna Belos of SINCERE ENGINEER.
Speaking about the new song, frontman Justin Pierre shares, “as soon as I heard Josh’s bonkers guitar part, I flipped out. I don’t know how he does it. I’d been listening to a lot of DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN around the time of writing the lyrics, and I think his influence comes out a bit in the verses (but hopefully in a way that doesn’t sound totally derivative). I think the rest of the tune owes a debt of gratitude to THAT DOG for sure. Matt mentioned he hears some FAITH NO MORE in the tune, which is always a good sign, and now I hear it too. Hell, I learned how to be weird on stage watching Mike Patton on the You Fat Bastards (Live At The Britton Academy London) video cassette as a teenager in 90/91. I wore that shit out.”
