Pop punk group, FRND CRCL have released their highly anticipated third studio album, Suburban Dictionary today. The band’s punk rock take on today’s modern spiritual revolution is a conceptual piece that, from start to finish, takes listeners through the motions of a day in the life of the average suburbanite. Listen to the album now below.
Starting at 7AM and delving into social issues, love and mental health, FRND CRCL’s depiction of suburban life is a relatable take on the classic emo-esque storyline of fitting in, standing out, growing up, relationships, gossip and much more throughout the 14 track narrative.
The juxtaposition between the instrumentals reminiscent of peak 2010s pop punk and heavy lyrics brings a familiar, nostalgic feeling back to the surface with each profound pop punk anthem. With fresh catchy melodies, anthemic choruses and guitar breakdowns, the progression of songs and overall concept is an encapsulation of the band’s evolution, summarizing FRND CRCL as a whole while defining their signature urban punk and imaginative sound.
“People ask us all the time what FRND CRCL means” shares the band. “You’re the realest version of yourself when you’re with your friends; this albums for those who relate to their friends more than the life around them… whether that be their home life, society, in their newsfeed or on tv.”
FRND CRCL continue to carve their niche into the realm of pop punk, bringing their delightful nostalgic yet strikingly infectious fresh feel into the now. Catch them live at an upcoming performance near you. More to be announced soon.
