Super Sometimes, the rising, Gen Z pop punk band from Southern California, have released their anticipated new full-length album ‘Show the World What’s Underneath’ out now via Pure Noise Records. They also released the official music video for the album’s title track, which can be seen below.
Prior to the album’s release the band shared the singles and music videos for ‘Learned My Lesson’, ‘Make Up Stories’ and ‘Afterthought’, which can be found on the album.
“’Show the World What’s Underneath’ is us staking our flag in the ground as one of the torchbearers of pop-punk,” the band says. “There’s a little bit of something for everybody, and our take on the genre will definitely be a breath of fresh air for those who have been looking for something a little different in the scene. We hope it inspires more people to fall in love with pop-punk the same way we did growing up.”
“You have your whole life to make your first album, and we truly spent a lot of time and put a lot of love into crafting something we’re proud of,” the band continues. “We hope it inspires more people to fall in love with pop-punk the same way we did growing up. This album is the first of many. At the end of the day, we’re just three best friends who love making music and playing shows, and we’re going to take this dream as far as it can go”
Returning to longtime collaborator Zach Tuch, the band dove into writing sessions with idols-turned-peers like Knuckle Puck’s Nick Casasanto, Hot Mulligan’s Chris Freeman and producer Kyle Black, turning their encyclopedic knowledge of the genre’s inner workings into a debut that captures the same limitless potential as the records that first inspired Super Sometimes to pick up instruments: modern touchstones like State Champs, The Story So Far and Seaway alongside icons like blink-182, New Found Glory and Green Day. Bridging the gap between skate punk, new-millennium pop charisma and modern angst, the songs explore coming-of-age malaise, romantic fallout and the thrill – and fear – of fully committing to the road ahead. The heart of the record lies in these real stakes, a conscious decision by the band to put everything on the line in their late teens and early 20s.
Since they first emerged from the sun-soaked San Diego scene, Super Sometimes have embraced pop-punk’s most public tradition: growing up in real time. The young trio – vocalists/guitarists Gabriel Muñoz and Dylan Guzman and drummer Matthew Ludwig – have steadily expanded their reach from local rooms to national stages and social media FYPs, pairing restless energy and irreverent humor with a forward-looking confidence to continue carrying the torch for a genre that’s raised them.
