A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away (or in this case Birmingham, UK), a band was born! That band’s name? The Zatopeks! Now, on this glorious day, 23 years later, and now residing in Germany, the Zatopeks continue to carry the old school pop-punk torch with pride, bringing us their brand new album Loitering & Sauntering. The record releases digitally tomorrow (July 5th) on Stardumb Records, with the physical release slated for August 8th.
However, DyingScene.com (that’s us!) is pleased to bring you the exclusive, world premiere(!) of Loitering & Sauntering! That’s right, you can listen to this wonderful album in its entirety right here, right now. Just scroll down the webpage a lil bit and click play. I can say with absolute certainty you won’t regret it. Also! Buy the record. You can get it on translucent pink vinyl and “babylon green” vinyl (each limited to 100 copies), as well as black wax (200 copies) right here. It’s also available from Forbidden Beat in Canada, Brassneck Records in the UK, The Machine Shop in the US, and Endless Detention Records in Australia.
Here are some words from the Zatopeks’ fearless leader (and singer) Will DeNiro:
“Loitering and Sauntering is our fourth album and our most history-inspired to date. If you’re into suburban paranoia, early twentieth-century antifascism, Cold War spies, insomnia on public transport or Polish Prime Ministers’ haircuts, then the songs really do offer something for everyone.”
This premiere is brought to you in part by Punk Rock Radar. If you’d like your band’s music video to be premiered by Dying Scene and Punk Rock Radar, go here and follow these instructions. You’ll be on your way to previously unimagined levels of fame and fortune in no time!
