State Champs have announced their self-titled fifth studio album.
The follow-up to 2022’s 'Kings Of The New Age' was produced by Anton DeLost and will arrive on November 8 via Pure Noise Records.
Along with the news, the Albany pop-punks have shared two songs off the record, the buoyant Silver Cloud, which offers their familiar blend of punchy power chords, catchy melodies and pop hooks, and the more contemplative Too Late To Say. Frontman Derek DiScanio said:
"We found our way, through the ups and downs within us, personally and as a band, and wanted to express that. This is the right time to showcase it.”
Bassist Ryan Scott Graham added: "When we stepped back and looked at the songs, sonically and thematically, it’s a great vision of who we are. Every era of State Champs exists within this record."
State Champs will support the LP with a previously scheduled North American tour in the fall, with Knuckle Puck, Meet Me At The Altar, and Daisy Grenade. They'll also appear at Chicago's Riot Fest in September. Tickets are on sale now.
