Legendary independent New York-based rock label Equal Vision Records and The Flatliners are excited to present ‘Misanthropy and Me’, the brand new single from the JUNO Award-nominated, Toronto-bred punk mainstays. Its first offering for the label, ‘Misanthropy and Me’ examines a shared human condition in which hope, optimism and one’s sense of purpose begins to dissolve.
The band had the following to share about the track: “Born from a familiar flame and destined to dominate a special place in your barely beating heart, we present to you an all-new anthem of apathy, ‘Misanthropy & Me’. While the fires of ‘New Ruin’ are still burning bright, the flickering light inside humanity’s head has undoubtedly dimmed. We’re here to reassure you: Your spirit’s not broken. It’s just worn out…”
Additionally, The Flatliners will be making a handful of appearances across the month of December. Performing headline shows in Chicago, IL on Saturday, December 6th and Montreal, QC on Saturday, December 13th, the run will also include the band’s annual, year-end performance, The Holiday Melee, at the Danforth Music Hall in Toronto, ON on Friday, December 12th. Support in select markets will be provided by The Lawrence Arms, Fucked Up, Samiam, Dead Broke, The Planet Smashers and Wine Lips.
