Motion City Soundtrack have just returned with their first brand new single in 10 years, “Stop Talking,” which is out now.
The highly-anticipated new single comes alongside the nationwide release of the new movie Dìdi (弟弟), which is in select theaters now and everywhere on August 16, 2024. Written and directed by Sean Wang and featuring a talented cast, Dìdi (弟弟) tells a heartfelt story of growth, self-discovery, and resilience as it follows Chris Wang, an impressionable Taiwanese American boy growing up in Fremont, California. The band’s new track is set to enhance the film’s emotional landscape, marking a significant moment in both the music and film worlds.
Motion City Soundtrack vocalist/guitarist Justin Pierre from the band says, “Nostalgia in the era of internet rules. A clip of Sean Wang and Carlos López Estrada, producer of the film ‘Dìdi (弟弟)’ rocking out during our set at When We Were Young festival last year caused a domino effect, resulting in us releasing our first new song in nearly ten years. We recorded at Steve Albini’s legendary Electrical Audio studio with San O’Keefe in the producer seat. He recorded one of our first efforts a thousand years ago (pre I Am The Movie) and it was incredible to get to work with him again.”
