BLACKSTARKIDS Release Debut Album 'Puppies Forever'

Today, BLACKSTARKIDS have released Puppies Forever via Dirty Hit, their anticipated debut full-length album. The album features "PISS DRUNK KIDS", an escapist banger that revels in the freedom of being intoxicated with your friends as a means of distracting yourself from negative emotions and life's problems, alongside previously released singles "ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS*," "FIGHT CLUB," and "JUNO."

"Puppies Forever represents a time in our life that we wanted to document forever through the songs we were making," says BLACKSTARKIDS. "We wanted to do something that was bold, colorful, and expressive and it means keeping a piece of your youth alive within you forever."

Previous single "ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS*" is a political, pop punk inspired anti-authoritarian anthem that hits back at police brutality, abuse of authority, and inherently oppressive systems. "FIGHT CLUB" sees BLACKSTARKIDS' Ty, Deoindre, and The Babe Gabe launch out of the gate and directly into your faces as they ooze with swagger and trade off verses with ease while serotonin-laced indie pop bop "JUNO" has been described as "the sort of rare track that combines all your teenage phases into one intoxicating amalgamation" by Ones To Watch.

Currently on tour with Glass Animals, BLACKSTARKIDS recently wrapped a string of dates with GroupLove and will soon embark on a nationwide, 26-date tour alongside Christian Leave in support of beabadoobee on November 1 that will include a hometown show in Kansas City and stop in major cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Dallas, Austin, San Francisco, Boston, Atlanta, Seattle, and more.
