The Get Up Kids Announce ‘Problems,’ First New LP In Eight Years
The Get Up Kids are back with new music! The band has announced their new album, Problems, out May 10th via Polyvinyl. This marks their second full-length release since their reunion back in 2008. They give us a preview of the record with the new song “Satellite” along with its accompanying music video directed by Kerstin Ebert. Watch it below.
“I started writing ‘Satellite’ about my son who’s 14 and a total introvert—not antisocial, he just genuinely likes to keep to himself,” guitarist/vocalist Matt Pryor said in a statement. “But then somewhere down the line I started singing about myself—about how even when you’re playing a show to a room full of people, I can still feel anxious and isolated.”

The Get Up Kids play South By Southwest, which starts Friday, March 8 and runs until Sunday, March 17 in Austin, Texas. Find more information here.
