Teenage Bottlerocket - I Never Knew
A few days ago I commented that there'd been some great pop punk releases already this year and how there were several more upcoming. A song from one of those features today.
I'm sure you all know Teenage Bottlerocket by now. 7 studio albums (plus the Stealing The Covers homage to some of their favourite obscure songs) of top quality pop punk. Their sound hasn't changed much in the last decade and a half (maybe the production is a little more polished) but as far as I'm concerned that's a good thing. The latest of those albums, Stay Rad! dropped last week on Fat Wreck Chords and it's another winner. You can get it on vinyl in various colours here : https://fatwreck.com/collections/new-releases/products/stay-rad or digitally here : https://teenagebottlerocket.bandcamp.com/album/stay-rad
There's more mature tracks about parenthood and how singer Ray misses his late brother Brandon as well as fun rockers like Night Of The Knuckleheads and I Want To Kill Clint Carlin. This is the only song on the album about a girl. It was written by bassist Miguel Chen about his wife Lily and it's called I Never Knew....
