Compandas Issue “Theme Song From Compandas”

Pittsburgh, PA’s Compandas, the new project from Short Fictions vocalist & guitarist Sam Treber, have shared Theme Song to Compandas, the second single from their forthcoming debut album, Tropical Finasteride, that is due out on July 10th via Lauren Records. All grandiose endeavors deserve a theme song, and Compandas are no exception, on the closing track from Tropical Finasteride the band delivers a fitting mission statement that’s strange, funny, and oddly sincere. The band’s upcoming full length is a self-proclaimed journey through a mind diseased by popular culture and excessive substance intake. In a world where turning a blind eye can feel like the only way to stay sane, Compandas‘ debut album becomes a manual for confronting cognitive dissonance. Truly, there is no joy without suffering.

Harkening to the golden age of blog-era Brooklyn, Compandas aims to renaissance a joyful DIY sound that the world seems to have traded for delusions of “making it.” This punk band from Pittsburgh is culturally more Mediafire than they are Instagram. What if the silly songs you make up in your head were recorded to the laptop you bought in college? What if Malcolm in the Middle was still your favorite TV show? Compandas dare to wonder.
