The Offspring release new single Light It Up: “This song is a full-speed-ahead juggernaut!”
Listen to The Offspring’s new punk rager Light It Up, taken from October’s album Supercharged.
The Offspring have just shared a killer new single, Light It Up.
The track is taken from the band’s upcoming album Supercharged – which is due out October 11 via Concord – and follows June lead single Make It All Right.
“This song is a full-speed-ahead juggernaut!” announces frontman Dexter Holland. “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 favourite songs were by punk bands that were just like, ‘I’m sick of your shit.’ And that was okay! 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.”
