Fucked Up release isolated guitar tracks from 'Someday'

Fucked Up have released a guitar version of their latest album, Someday. This version is just the isolated guitar tracks from the record. It's only available for 24 hours and is digital only.

The band stated: "Someday (guitar) is the first iteration of the album “Someday” after the initial 24 hour recording period between Mike and Alex Gamble. Like “One Day” and “Another Day” before it, Someday was written, arranged and recorded on guitar on the spot in studio, over three 8 hour tracking sessions. Done in the last week of September 2022, five months after the guitar sessions for “Another Day,” these guitar-only tracks are the product. Over the next few years between tours, drums and bass were added, lyrics were conceived and written, and vocals were finally tracked in spring 2024. A final layer of synths were added during mixing, and the album was mastered and released November 1 2024."

Check out the new tune by Sekunderna!

Today, we are psyched to debut the new tune by Sekunderna!

On Friday, Dec 6, Bloated Kat Records is releasing a new four-way split lp featuring Heavy Lag, Sekunderna, Teenage Bigfoot, and TV Cop. The idea for the split came from a tour all the abnds went on last year. They had such a blast that they decided to make a combo-attack album!

Sweden's Sekunderna turns in a cover tune… except it's a cover of a cover… and if you read Punknews you'll know it right away. The tune was recorded last year by Jeff Burke (Marked Men) during a day off on Sekunderna's first American tour. Guitarist and singer Lars shared these thoughts about the experience: "To meet, record, and hang out with Jeff was really cool. A living legend. His bands have been such an inspiration over the years. Touring the east coast was different from Sweden. But the punk community was much alike. We look after each other."

You can pre-order the new LP right here and check out the new tune below, right now! Sekunderna is currently readying their second full length record and will presumably be playing in all sorts of places in Europe to support it next year.

Check out the new track by TV Cop!

Today, we are psyched to debut the new tune by Tv Cop!

On Friday, Dec 6, Bloated Kat Records is releasing a new four-way split lp featuring Heavy Lag, Sekunderna, Teenage Bigfoot, and TV Cop. The idea for the split came from a tour all the bands went on last year. They had such a blast that they decided to make a combo-attack album!

TV Cop contributes a sing-a-long pop punk number that, after being sugary sweet, twists down into a gnarly anti-music tilt-a-whirl. It's a slammer. When asked to comment, guitarist and vocalist Dakota said, "I wanted to write a song about the frustration you feel when your sports team doesn’t win, mixed in with a little bit of Y2K feel. Our tour last year with the bands on this split was a bunch of firsts for us. First time playing a run of shows like this, first time going east, and first time seeing an ocean. Tour is almost always fun but touring with a big group of new friends in bands that mutually respect each other was a very cool experience."

You can pre-order the new LP right here and check out the new tune below, right now! TV Cop expects to release a full length next year before embarking on a Midwest tour with Heavy Lag.
