Bad Cop/Bad Cop have a new single, “Shattered,” their first new music since their 2020 LP The Ride. It is also the first official song with new guitarist Alex Windsor, who replaces Jennie Cotterill, who recently departed the band.
The song comes to us as a music video, and Stacey Dee has this to say about the track:
“Shattered” is a song I wrote after seeing a good friend post on the internet about how he was really struggling in life. It compelled me to grab my guitar in an attempt to reach out to those I see hurting every day. I know that life gets hard and can be brutal, but it is also wonderful and beautiful when we are able to open our eyes and see it. I empathize with those having a hard time. I’ve been there, but I also now have a perspective that allows me to live my life no matter what. I want that for everyone! “Shattered” is a love letter to the folks in the world that are suffering to let them know they are loved and not alone!
The song is out via Fat Wreck Chords, but no word (yet) on whether this is officially a stand-alone, or a precursor to a future release.
BC/BC also have a lot of dates lined up in Europe (with The Venomous Pinks) and North America between now and the end of September. Check out details on those gigs at their official website.

He’s lived (outside of) Chicago, Madison WI, (ugh) Penn State, Lyon FR, Oxford UK, central New Jersey, and now within earshot of SFO in the Bay Area. When not scouring the web for more great bands and labels to post about, he also spends time drawing (mostly) silly sci-fi and anime stuff under the name Asplenia Studios.
