On October 18th, Nashville rock outfit PUJOL will release their new EP, Nasty, Brutish, And Short, via Conor Oberst’s Saddle Creek Records. Defining that record’s title to a T is the lead single, “Mayday”, which is available below for streaming/downloading. Don’t be fooled so easily by this punk riot; the raucous little number has some pretty heavy meaning beneath its shiny, chaotic surface. “This song,” band leader Daniel Pujol said, “is about my friend Richard Houston attaining maximum grooviness by harnessing different viewpoints to gain a clearer perspective aside from feigning teenage omniscience.” Ummm, groovy?
PUJOL have also confirmed a bunch of upcoming tour dates with the equally rocking Ted Leo & the Pharmacists. Check out the band’s entire tour schedule underneath the EP’s tracklist.
