PUP ANNOUNCE SPLENDOUR SIDESHOWS + BRAND NEW TRACK ‘TOTALLY FINE’

by the partae

THE UNRAVELING OF PUPTHEBAND out April 1 on Little Dipper / Cooking Vinyl Australia

Today Toronto punk heroes PUP are delighted to reveal Splendour In The Grass sideshows in Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne alongside the release of new track and video ‘Totally Fine’. The track is taken from the ambitious and aptly titled fourth album, THE UNRAVELING OF PUPTHEBAND, out April 1.

Accompanied by one of the Greatest Music Videos Of All Time™, Totally Fine is a hilariously self-lacerating track with an undeniable chorus that offers plenty of opportunities to open up the pit. The track features Mel from Casper Skulls on vocals, with Sarah from Illuminati Hotties, Kathryn from NOBRO and Erik from Remo Drive on the gang vocals.

Says vocalist Stefan, “We wrote ‘Totally Fine’ after a long creative drought. We all agreed to take a break from PUP during lockdown, to take some time to deal with our mental health and get some space from each other…The drumming on this song still blows our minds. It’s so manic and wild and makes the song feel like it’s about to fall apart at any moment, which is kinda like how it feels to be in PUP.”

PUP will hit three capital cities prior to their July 23 performance at Splendour In The Grass this winter. Renown for their impossibly energetic performances and raucous singalongs, the return of PUP to our shores after such a lengthy absence cannot come soon enough.

The band perhaps put it best; ‘Thank Fucking God’. 

Dates: 
19 July – The Gov, Adelaide
21 July – The Croxton, Melbourne
22 July – Factory Theatre, Sydney
23 July- Splendour In The Grass, North Byron Parklands
