Deer Tick recently announced plans to follow up 2013’s Negativity with the release of two new albums — Vol. 1, which showcases the band’s reflective, folkier side, and Vol. 2, which emphasizes their grittier punk leanings.
Today, the group has released a track off the latter called “Jumpstarting,” an infectious rocker in which frontman John McCauley offers the listener support through times of hardship. Accompanying the track is an amusing animated visual of the band members relaxing poolside.
Deer Tick Vol.1 and Deer Tick Vol.2 were recorded in Memphis at Ardent Studios, and both albums are due out September 15 via Partisan Records.
Check out the video for “Jumpstarting” below as well as the band’s upcoming tour dates.
