Crows are back with a new single, album and headline tour dates!

The punk favourites will be releasing their upcoming third record Reason Enough – the follow-up to 2022’s Beware Believers – on September 27 via Bad Vibrations, and vocalist James Cox teases that it’s “Crows in high definition”.

Going into more detail, he shares of its meaning: “Like so many musicians today, being off album cycle means no touring, which in turn means looking for more day-to-day work options to make ends meet.

“We wrote Reason Enough in a period like this when we were all simultaneously working day jobs to pay the bills. And when we’re not touring, I become way more aware of, and susceptible to, the news cycle. Being bombarded by constant doom and gloom can create a real despondent maelstrom.”

Referring more specifically to newly-released lead single Bored, James continues, “With what seemed like no hope for respite, or any change to my routine whatsoever, the song Bored came out of that cycle of waking up and not being able to shake the feeling of wanting to bang your forehead against a brick wall.”

Watch the video for Bored below:
