Father's Day is coming up quick on June 17, and what better time would there be for a dad-themed punk rock band? Dad Brains, a play on Bad Brains in both name and artwork, will release their new EP this Friday via their Bandcamp and you can check out their debut track "Baby Jail" below.
Here's what bassist Craig Kasamis tells New Noise Magazine is the reason behind the band's music.
Well, since were all dads, it only seemed appropriate to give back to the punkrock father community. Father’s day is a weird one because even at it’s best, you still rarely get what you want, which is peace and quiet. Instead, you get woken up at the asscrack of dawn to have your kids yell at you and make you eat something resembling breakfast, open the presents you basically bought yourself, then spend the rest of your day entertaining the kids to show how great of a father you’re supposed to be. This is obviously still all worth it because being a father is the hardest/raddest thing any man can do. We just figured that if we could give a real father’s day gift to the punk rock family, maybe some goofy songs that dads can relate to would be a start.
Now go be good dads. If you're not a dad, go… pretend to be a dad or something. Or eat a cheeseburger. I'm not here to tell you what to do with your free time.
