Chicago pop-punks Plain White Ts have dropped a new single and video. “Fired Up” is set to appear on the band’s upcoming self-titled record from Fearless Records on 17 November.
Frontman Tom Higgenson ays of the new track:
“‘Fired Up’ is such a party. Somehow, it’s energetic and lazy, amped up and chill, all at the same time. I think it might be the best song on the album. It’s all about looking around and seizing the day. A total feel good song, but in an odd, quirky way. I don’t think it’s possible to listen to it without smiling.”
Bad Dad (occasionally called Ed) has been on the periphery of the punk and punk-adjacent scene for over twenty years. While many contributors to this site have musical experience and talent, Ed’s musical claim to fame comes from his time in arguably the most punk rock Blockbuster Video district in NJ where he worked alongside members of Blanks 77, Best Hit TV and Brian Fallon. He is more than just an awful father to his 2 daughters, he is also a dreadful husband, a subpar writer, a terrible dresser and has a severe deficiency in all things talent… but hey, at least he’s self-aware, amirite?
