The Menzingers have dropped Second City, a brand new track taken from the upcoming 20 Years Of Dreaming And Scheming compilation that celebrates the 20th anniversary of Red Scare Industries. 20 Years Of Dreaming And Scheming features 17 brand new tracks from Laura Jane Grace, Dead To Me, The Falcon, Cobra Skulls, The Holy Mess, Nothington, No Trigger, Sam Russo, Sludgeworth, The Brokedowns, The Bollweevils, Elway, The Lippies and more. The Menzingers have also announced that they will be appearing at the 2025 Manchester Punk Festival.

“We spent a lot of time in Chicago during the formative years of the band, so when asked to contribute a song for Red Scare’s 20th anniversary, it felt right to pay homage to that era. Second City is about a time and place that feels impossible to recreate now, and maybe that’s why I hold it so close to my heart. Chicago has been like a second home, so it felt pretty natural to write about.” (vocalist & guitarist Greg Barnett)
