Knuckle Puck Reveal “Disposable Life” EP

Knuckle Puck, one of the aggressive pop-punk genre’s preeminent forces have today released their brand new EP, Disposable Life, via Wax Bodega. The record opens with Gasoline, a mid-tempo pop punk thunder clap that hammers home the record’s thesis on its chorus and plans for a radical new reality: “With every day spent in the shade, think I’ll watch it burn/Throw gasoline on an open flame”. Knuckle Puck will also be on the road throughout February & March with Hot Mulligan, Meet Me @ the Altar and Anxious.

The five song EP, which comprises four originals and a scorching, faithful cover of Blink-182‘s Here’s Your Letter, is a recommitment to the band’s founding sound, the tight, manicured, major-key chaos of ripping guitars, sprinting bass, airtight drums, and harmonised vocals, but it’s also a recommitment to an idea: that every day and moment has meaning, and every life has value.

The result is a record that bridges the gap between Knuckle Puck sounds of past and present. The title, Disposable Life, nods to this stretch of time in its own way: what does it mean to lead a meaningful life? Disposable Life is a reintroduction to Knuckle Puck: it’s a celebration of the past decade of the band and a supercharged mission statement for the future. It’s a sharp inhale, a spring-loaded blast off the starting blocks after the tumult of the past two years. It’s a sign of good things yet to come.
