Motion City Soundtrack Announce New Album & Share First Single; “She Is Afraid”

Motion City Soundtrack has announced their first new album since 2015 Panic Stations. The new album, titled The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World will be released September 19th via Epitaph Records. Along with the announcement, the band has shared the first single, She Is Afraid.

Speaking on She Is Afraid, frontman Frontman Justin Pierre said: “As soon as I heard Josh’s bonkers guitar part, I flipped out. I don’t know how he does it. I’d been listening to a lot of Del the Funky Homosapien around the time of writing the lyrics, and I think his influence comes out a bit in the verses (but hopefully in a way that doesn’t sound totally derivative). I think the rest of the tune owes a debt of gratitude to That Dog for sure. Matt mentioned he hears some Faith No More in the tune, which is always a good sign, and now I hear it too. Hell, I learned how to be weird on stage watching Mike Patton on the You Fat Bastards (Live At The Britton Academy London) videocassette as a teenager in ‘90/‘91. I wore that shit out.”
