Brooklyn-based Pass Away have a new single, which came out on Friday Feb. 28, a week ago. The song is called "Blue Drinks" and has a deeper meaning than its title first suggests.

“Blue Drinks is about letting go of past bullshit and embracing the good times to come. The best revenge in life is to raise a drink with your best friends and laugh at the world," the band says on the new tune, embedded after the bump next to their upcoming tour dates.

Pass Awat will be touring the US East Coast in late March and early April with Fat Wreck artists MakeWar and The Bombpops. The group last released The Hell I’ve Always Seen in 2018 (Suburbia Records).

Get It Together
Fat Wreck Chords (2019)

MakeWar aren’t like most of the other punk bands out there. They play what I call midtempo punk. It’s not built on anthems, choruses or super-fast into-the-pit adrenaline. Get It Together isn’t about fist-in-the-air release, it’s about built-up tension. The band is actively calling for people to (ahem) Get. It. Together. The tone is one of frustration and marginalization, but with a … Read more

Developing A Theory of Integrity
Red Scare Industries (2016)

One of the reasons I gravitate toward the pop-end of the punk spectrum is because it lacks pretention. The structures are straightforward and honest, often predictable to such a fault that it’s become cliché. That’s why an album like Developing A Theory of Integrity is so refreshing. The overall sound is gruff pop-punk with a verse-chorus-verse foundation and a lot … Read more
