The Offspring release new song ‘Light It Up’

THE OFFSPRING have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Light It Up, is taken from the iconic punk rock band’s upcoming new album, Supercharged, which is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Concord Records.

Speaking about the new song, frontman Dexter Holland says, “this song is a full speed ahead juggernaut! This character in the song is fed up, he’s had enough, and he’s gonna light it up. He’s ready for a fight. And I definitely sense a lot of that around me. Growing up, some of my favorite songs were by punk bands that were just like, ‘I’m sick of your shit’. And that was ok! It wasn’t like a negative thing to have those feelings and express that. And I think that’s kind of the vibe of where Light It Up is: You’re fed up, you’ve had it and you want to do something about it. That’s one of things I’ve always loved about punk rock. It’s always been about letting out your aggressions, and I think that’s still true. I still love writing songs like that.”

Supercharged is set for release on October 11th via Concord Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
