PUP have dropped their new "very stupid, but also wonderful" single 'Olive Garden'
Canadian punk band PUP release heavy new single 'Olive Garden' and announce upcoming album 'Who Will Look After The Dogs?'
PUP have shared new single 'Olive Garden' ahead of their fifth album 'Who Will Look After The Dogs?', set for release via Little Dipper / Rise Records on 2nd May.
The track, which began as an acoustic demo, evolved into one of the heaviest songs on the record, accompanied by a video created by bassist Nestor Chumak.
"This is a very stupid, but also wonderful song," Stefan Babcock explains. "The band get all the credit for turning it into something really special. Zack (who plays drums) heard my cute little acoustic guitar demo and decided we should try and make it as heavy as possible. Which is objectively, a very annoying thing to suggest. But you know what, I'm glad I kept my stupid mouth shut, because it works. There's a real magic in the way these sweet vocal melodies are bludgeoned by a wall of disgusting, grinding, detuned guitars. The whole song is kinda upsetting and uncomfortable but also, catchy and fun. And I don't care what anyone says, 'Olive Garden' rhymes with 'Grandma in a coffin' – listen to this crap and tell me I'm wrong."
