PUP Have Released The Details Of Their New EP

---

PUP have announced a brand new EP called ‘This Place Sucks Ass’.

The Ep will be released on October 23rd via Rise Records.

Talking about the title, vocalist Stefan Babcock said “It was a thing we used to say as a joke a million times on tour. Literally any city, whether it was Lethbridge, Alberta, or New York City, we’d be like, ‘This place sucks ass.’ We have so much negativity, and sometimes it becomes so extreme and ridiculous that we start to find it funny. But at this moment in time, it feels so fucking real. Wherever you are, it sucks ass right now. So, wherever you live, whatever your circumstances, this is an EP about the place you’re from, and the place you’re at now.”

The tracklisting for ‘This Place Suck Ass:

01. Rot
02. Anaphylaxis
03. A.M. 180
04. Nothing Changes
05. Floodgates
06. Edmonton
