Less Than Jake To Release New EP ‘Sound The Alarm’

Gainesville, Fla., ska punk legends Less Than Jake are releasing a new EP titled Sound The Alarm on Feb. 3, 2017 via Pure Noise Records. LTJ joined the southern California label’s roster after stopping in San Francisco for Warped Tour last year.

The band is now streaming a track off the upcoming EP. Listen to Things Change here.

In regards to the song, Less Than Jake lyricist and drummer Vinnie Fiorello said:

“‘The only thing constant is change’ is one of the lines in the chorus of the song and such a massive truth to me. The sooner you could realize this, digest it, and embrace it the better off you’re going to be. Let it all move forward, at lightning speed. Everything and everyone changes, the world keeps on spinning like it or not.”

Along with signing to a new record label and releasing an EP, Less Than Jake is celebrating 25 years as a band.

Fiorello continued:

“We started writing this set of songs, similar to our last record ‘See The Light,’ sitting around a table in our warehouse with some acoustic guitars, lyrics scribbled on scraps of paper, and a constant barrage of ideas. Trying ideas as they would come out, sometimes chasing the idea, or getting connected or not connected to an idea right away. We had been writing and were planning on fleshing out the ideas while on Warped Tour.”

Beginning on Jan. 20, Less Than Jake will co-headline a tour through February with rock three-piece Pepper. Check out the tour dates below. Tickets are available here.
