0Leftover Crack Debuts New Song feat. Jesse Michaels of Op Ivy
Our favorite crusties, Leftöver Crack, just debuted a new song, System Fucked, featuring guest vocals from Jesse Michaels of Operation Ivy. You can check out the song on Soundcloud right now. The track is sure to be a ska-punk classic. LOC vocalist Sturgeon explains:
“Jesse’s a busy guy. He’s been in the process of writing several books, including my favorite novel of 2014, The Whispering Bodies: A Roy Belkin Disaster. So, it took several years of planning & practice to lock him down for an hour in a studio in Southern California, which was actually perfect, because I was working on Constructs of the State for several years as well & I was forced to finish the lyrics to ‘System Fucked’ in time to record it with him. And in doing so, I found in Jesse what had connected me to Operation Ivy in the first place: a warm hearted person with his head on his shoulders, a social conscience & a wit to be reckoned with.”
The band’s long awaited third album, Contructs of the State, is due out November 27th on Fat Wreck Chords. If you happen to catch the band on tour, you may be able to snag a vinyl copy of the album since they seem to be floating around!
