Today, Punknews is thrilled to debut the new tune by Get Married!
Taking the chilled wailing of the Pixies, the pop-punk stomp of The Mr. T Experience, and the woo ooo ooo of the Beach Boys, Get Married are a wonderfully bombastic mess of a band. These disparate parts shouldn't fit together, but somehow the band finds the common thread and weaves it all together into a spinning mass of catchy punk rock. Not only does the band's new song "Living Room" exemplify this, but it also has a ripping guitar solo stapled into the middle. You Jeff Rosenstock fans will dig this, too.
Speaking to Punknews, vocalist Jaake Margo said, "This song is about that safe and warm feeling you have when every thing in the outside world is miserable, but you're tucked away inside your house, hiding on your couch, watching old movies, and avoiding reality at all costs. You know the feeling. Anyway, this song was originally intended to be on our first release, but we decided to save it for the album because… it rocks so hard? I guess. I don't know. Facts are fun! Anyway. Aliens are real."
The band's new album Songs For the Sleepless is out August 17 via Asian Man Records and Wiretap Records. You'll be able to pick it up here. Meanwhile, hear "Living Room" below, right now!
