DIY Pop Punk Band Baby Got Back Talk Release New Song

New York pop punk quartet Baby Got Back Talk debut their new song, “Season Premiere,” off of their upcoming new album Existential Shred, due out September 9th via Wiretap Records. Known for their DIY punk ethos, Baby Got Back Talk bring an early 2000’s pop punk jam paired with fiery power chords and catchy, melodic vocals.

Vocalist G'Ra Asim drew inspiration from his job as an English professor working with students during office hours for the upcoming release. He shares, “I’d spent so much time studying literature in the hopes that the bards of old held the wisdom I could use to orient my own journey. Students were looking to me to share that wisdom, yet I was keenly aware that I had so much left to figure out myself.”

Asim continues, “The eureka moment we sometimes think we’re pursuing doesn’t necessarily deliver. The closest you can actually get is accepting that there’s no grand design to uncover, which means you’re free to make your own. Season Premiere is the sound of four weary but still wide-eyed weirdos doing exactly that, and inviting the listener to do so in their own right.”

Previously the band released an EP in 2017, Take This The Wrong Way, with an additional EP in 2018, Up In Open Arms. Their full-length debut, Genre Reveal Party, came out in 2020 and was mixed by Paul Leavitt, who has worked with All Time Low, Senses Fail, and Yellowcard. They were also named one of Alternative Press’s 17 Black Alternative Bands leading the next generation in 2020.
