PUP announce new album ‘Who Will Look After The Dogs?’
PUP have announced a new album!
Titled Who Will Look After The Dogs?, the upcoming album from the Canadian punk rock band is the follow-up to 2022’s The Unraveling Of PUPTheBand and is scheduled to be released in May this year, via Little Dipper/Rise Records.
The upcoming album was made in Los Angeles with producer John Congleton over the course of three weeks, and it intends to be the culmination of the band’s past decade of constant touring and their palpable, livewire chemistry.
Alongside the announcement of the new album, PUP have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Hallways. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Paranoid, which was released back in January.
“Within days of announcing our last album, coincidentally titled The Unraveling of PUPTHEBAND, my life unexpectedly imploded. I wrote the lyrics for Hallways while all that was going on. It was a weird fucking week,” says vocalist/guitarist Stefan Babcock. “The title of our new record, Who Will Look After The Dogs?, is what I wrote at the top of the page, the very first thing written for this album. I think it’s devastating, but in a ‘holy shit this is overdramatic’ kinda way. At least in context of the line that comes before it. That’s what makes it funny to us. That overblown stuff we all say in our dark moments can be hilarious once you’ve cooled off a bit. I don’t know if anyone else thinks it’s funny, but sometimes you gotta laugh at yourself. It’s the only way out of the abyss. Trust me.”
