Description
Its been decades since New Found Glory were etched onto pop-punks Mount Rushmore, but as the Coral Springs, Florida, quartet approach their 30th anniversary, theyve proven with their 11th studio album ‘Listen Up!’ – and first for Pure Noise Records – that they still have plenty to say.
Shaped by guitarist Chad Gilberts battle with metastatic cancer and the enduring bond with bandmates Jordan Pundik, Ian Grushka, and Cyrus Bolooki, the record captures resilience and gratitude in tightly wound riffs and sing-along hooks reminiscent of their early 2000s classics. Written face-to-face in Gilberts Nashville home with a riff-first mentality, the album recalls ‘Sticks and Stones’ and ‘Catalyst’ while pushing forward with songs like first single 100%, road-tested alongside The Offspring and Jimmy Eat World.
Produced by Steve Evetts with contributions from Dan OConnor of Four Year Strong, ‘Listen Up!’ balances nostalgia with urgency, embodying the bands mission to inspire a new generation of fans while offering long time listeners a renewed sense of strength, positivity, and joybecause, as Pundik sings on Beer And Blood Stains, at the end of the day, its
good to be alive.
