Pissed Jeans Aim High With ‘The Bar Is Low’
Overachieving is overrated. Who the fuck wants to go to college, get straight A's, and come out on the same level as some punk who just smoked weed and skated by? It might be worth it to become the latter, and you can use Pissed Jeans' new tune, "The Bar Is Low," as your anthem. The Allentown, Pa., noise band is set to release its fifth full-length, Why Love Now, on February 24. On "The Bar Is Low," the band showcases the killer songwriting abilities they've cultivated for over 10 years. Vocalist Matt Korvette is at his peak, his voice gravelly as the late, great Lemmy Kilmister's when he sings over the popping riffs. It's a sick song, so don't feel bad about being a burnout.
