Vi avevamo già informati del fatto che i Teenage Bottlerocket avevano cominciato i lavori per il nuovo album, ma ora è ufficiale: “Ready To Roll” uscirà il prossimo 12 settembre per Pirate Press Records.
Queste le parole della punk band del Wyoming:
We’re back with a brand new full-length, and we’re thrilled to announce: Ready to Roll drops this September on Pirates Press Records!
This record came out of a place of just wanting to write songs that felt good to play. No big agenda—just loud, fast, and fun in the way that’s always felt right to us. The whole process reminded us how lucky we are to still be doing this together, and why it still matters. We recorded the album at The Blasting Room with our good friend Andrew Berlin, and had it mastered by Jason Livermore. It’s packed with everything you’d expect from TBR—with a few surprises we think you’ll love.
We’re extra stoked to be working with Pirates Press- the crew behind countless records we love and collect. They’ve pressed vinyl for half the punk scene, and now they’re handling Ready to Roll with that same passion and precision. Working with them gives us the freedom to have fun with the physical release—wild variants, cool packaging, all the stuff we geek out on as record collectors ourselves.
And of course, nothing but love for Fat Wreck Chords. We’ve had an incredible history with them, and we’re proud of everything we’ve built together over the years. We’re stoked to be putting out this new record with their full support.
Making this record reminded us why we started Teenage Bottlerocket in the first place: to play fast, have fun, and make music that brings people together. No distractions. No overthinking. Just four friends doing what we love.
The color theme? Brown and gold. If you’re from Wyoming, you already know.
The first single, “She’s the Shit,” is out now—here’s what Ray had to say:
“My wife Rachel loves to give me a hard time—she rolls her eyes when I rock out in front of the mirror, makes fun of the music I love, and calls me an old man when I bring up movies she’s never seen. And I totally love her for it. We talk shit while we drive, crank rad music, and laugh our asses off. This song is about all of that—it’s loud, fun, and full of personality. We chose it as the first single from Ready to Roll because it kicks the door open. It sets the tone for the whole record—fast, catchy, and not taking itself too seriously. Just the way we like it.”
