The Offspring have released another track off of their upcoming album.
Following on from Make It All Right, the thrashy Light It Up offers their trademark skater punk riffs and hooky choruses as the second preview of the Bob Rock-produced 'Supercharged', out on October 11. Frontman Dexter Holland said:
"This song is a full speed ahead juggernaut! This character in the song is fed up, he's had enough, and he’s gonna light it up. He’s ready for a fight. And I definitely sense a lot of that around me. Growing up, some of my favorite songs were by punk bands that were just like, “I'm sick of your shit.” And that was ok! It wasn’t like a negative thing to have those feelings and express that. And I think that's kind of the vibe of where Light It Up is: You're fed up, you've had it and you want to do something about it. That’s one of things I've always loved about punk rock. It’s always been about letting out your aggressions, and I think that’s still true. I still love writing songs like that."
The California band are currently amid a run of European festival dates, and play Chicago's Riot Fest and Louder Than Life in Louisville, Kentucky in September.
