Today, Fueled by Ramen alternative/indie-rockers The Front Bottoms have just released their new single, “Punching Bag.” The song is lifted from their upcoming album, You Are Who You Hang Out With, which will be released on August 4th via FBR.
The song’s release is accompanied by an official music video filmed and produced by The Front Bottoms’ on Brian Sella and edited by Dad Filmed It, and can be found below.
You Are Who You Hang Out With was recorded in mule-week spurts with producer Mike Sapone (Taking Back Sunday, Brand New, Mayday Parade), both at The Front Bottoms’ New Jersey studio and Ghost Hit Recording in Massachusetts.
Today, the band have released all of the album details, including the album artwork and track-listing. Pre-Orders are also live now, which can be found here. The album features both “Punching Bag” and the previously released “Outlook,” which arrived earlier this year with a music video also directed and edited by Dad Filmed It.
Later this August, The Front Bottoms will kick off Part 1 of their “You Are Who You Hang Out With Tour” featuring special guests Kevin Devine & The Goddamn Band, which includes a special album release show at Colorado’s legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre happening on August 4th.
Part 2 (9/15 – 10/1) will feature support from Vundabar and see the band performing two-night stands at Boston’s Roadrunner and Philadelphia’s Franklin Music Hall. Part 3 (10/20 – 11/11) kicks off on the west coast with Slothrust supporting, and includes stops at Austin’s ACL Live, Nashville’s Marathon Music Works, and concludes with two performances at New York City’s Terminal 5. Additional special guests for select dates will be announced in the coming weeks. For tickets and more information, visit here.
