The Boy Detective released the third single from their upcoming Disco Lunch album, which is set to be released on November 7th. American Farts is a hilarious name that is completely unrelated to the song- at least in any coherent way. I’m sure there is some tangential reason, and I would love to hear the story, but that’s not really important.
The Boy Detective is such an incredibly good punk band with gang vocals and an incredible horn section that continues to accidentally make ska songs. This song feels like somewhere between punk and rock, with lyrics and storytelling like a pop song of the summer, mixed with lyrics from a Rancid song. Just driving, hanging out, getting in fights, listening to music, but most of all, playing great fucking music that makes you want to get in a pit and maybe sing along. Thick ass bass lines, powerful horns, and a heavy dose of guitars. It’s loud, and damn is it good. Nothing’s perfect, but damn, this is how I want it to stay.
