Grumpster has just announced a new record, a self-titled third album set for release on April 26 via Pure Noise Records.

"Grumpster is an album mostly about mental health. It's about the ebbs and flows of mental health, depression, anxiety, love, physical health, etc. This collection of songs is all about lived experiences, feelings, emotions, and how it felt to exist in general over the past couple of years," the band says.

The lead single is "Wither," described as follows:

"Over the past few years I developed some pretty intense issues with my appetite and eating in general and it was really starting to take its toll. I felt my body and brain getting weaker and it really felt like I was starting to wither away, hence the song."

The Bay Area band last released Fever Dream in 2022.
