PUP have announced the details of their upcoming new album ‘Who Will Look After The Dogs?’.
Out May 02 via Little Dipper/ Rise Records, it includes the new single ‘Hallways’, on which frontman Stefan Babcock says “Within days of announcing our last album, coincidentally titled ‘The Unraveling of PUPTHEBAND’, my life unexpectedly imploded. I wrote the lyrics for ‘Hallways’ while all that was going on. It was a weird fucking week. The title of our new record, ‘Who Will Look After The Dogs?’, is what I wrote at the top of the page, the very first thing written for this album. I think it’s devastating, but in a ‘holy shit this is overdramatic’ kinda way. At least in context of the line that comes before it. That’s what makes it funny to us. That overblown stuff we all say in our dark moments can be hilarious once you’ve cooled off a bit. I don’t know if anyone else thinks it’s funny, but sometimes you gotta laugh at yourself. It’s the only way out of the abyss. Trust me.”
