0Swingin’ Utters to Release New Album
Swingin’ Utters are celebrating 30 years as being a band! Holy shit. They released a greatest hits collection last year and now they’re releasing Peace and Love, a new full-length album set to drop August 31st via Fat Wreck Chords. The band released a new single over at Brooklyn Vegan, so head there now to listen to Human Potential.
The album is available for pre-order now.
“This is, by far, our absolutely most political record we’ve ever done,” Koski says. “We don’t generally write very pointedly political songs. We tend to be a little more vague and abstract. But this one is pretty pointedly disgusted and pissed off and really directly attacking these fuckin’ people in office.”
“I agree it is our most political record,” remarks singer Johnny Bonnel. “When sexism, racism, and nationalism is the agenda, it’s time to speak up.”
Four years have passed since the Utters released their last full-length. The band has kept busy touring and has plenty of dates coming up. Check those out below.
