Simple Plan release new song ‘The Antidote’

SIMPLE PLAN have released a new song!

Titled The Antidote, the track is taken from the pop-punk band’s upcoming sixth studio album. While there’s no new information about the follow up to 2018’s Taking One For The Team, The Antidote marks the band’s first new music in two years. The Antidote was produced by Zakk Cervini who has worked with the likes of BLINK-182, MACHINE GUN KELLY, and GRIMES, and it was recorded at MDDN Studios in Los Angeles.

Speaking about the single, the band says, “we’re so excited to finally release The Antidote, the first single off our upcoming sixth album! The song is a throwback to our classic SIMPLE PLAN sound, but with a modern twist. It has all the elements our fans have come to love and expect from our band: a big, energetic chorus and honest and heartfelt lyrics that deal with life and the struggles we all face. It feels like the perfect starting point and a great preview of what’s to come on the album.

We wrote and recorded the song before the pandemic hit and in lots of ways, it has become even more relevant after everything that happened over the last 20 months. A lot of people are going through some tough times right now and the song talks about the importance of having someone or something to turn to when life gets really hard. For a lot of our fans and for us, it’s been music. Its power to heal, comfort and be a lifeline has never been greater and more needed than now. We hope this song will hit home with our fans and help them deal with the difficult moments we’re all facing.”
