As Knuckle Puck approach the 10-year anniversary of Copacetic, poised to be another celebratory chapter in their already lauded career, it’s clear there’s a newfound energy inside their ranks, a steadfast belief in one another that steered the ship during LOSING WHAT WE LOVE and will carry the band long into the future. In many ways, it’s the same spirit of unity that bonds their fervent crowds – the ones that pack sweaty clubs around the world to sing and scream along with Taylor and Casasanto’s impassioned vocals. And even if they’re not cut with as much lyrical optimism this time around, the sheer power and honesty of Knuckle Puck’s songs on LP4 will still give audiences a rallying cry around which to gather in transformative moments of community. “What excites me about being in Knuckle Puck these days is being excited to go play shows and know not much else matters,” Taylor says emphatically. “I used to get all in my head about online comments on songs, but then we’d go play shows and they were fucking nuts. Right now, the only thing that matters is the people freaking out to our songs every night.”
