THE BOUNCING SOULS Share Video for AS ONE Ahead of Headlining Tour
BORN TO BE album track was produced by Grammy winner Will Yip, known for work with TURNSTILE and TITLE FIGHT.
THE BOUNCING SOULS have released the official music video for 'As One,' a track from their new album BORN TO BE, out now. The video arrives just before the next leg of the band's headlining tour with Suicide Machines kicks off September 10 in Orlando.
BORN TO BE was produced by Grammy Award-winner Will Yip, known for his work with TURNSTILE and TITLE FIGHT, and is about staying human and connected in a world designed to strip both away.
BORN TO BE feels connected to everything the Souls have made over the years while still pushing expectations forward, and the creative process for The Bouncing Souls remains collaborative at its core.
Each member actively contributes to the songwriting. Vocalist Greg Attonito's experience may spark an idea for one song, while guitarist Pete Steinkopf's could complete another; bassist Bryan Kienlen's words deepen the emotional heart of each moment, and drummer George Rebelo has a unique ability for bringing in the exact right ideas at the exact right time. Naturally, the music never feels like just one storyteller, but instead the sound of a band still fully enthralled with the process of creating something together.
For nearly forty years, The Bouncing Souls have been one of the most deeply beloved forces in punk rock. Few bands have shaped the genre more profoundly, and their influence can be heard in bands like The Gaslight Anthem, My Chemical Romance, The Menzingers and many more––but their audience never stopped growing. To this day, adults and teenagers are discovering The Bouncing Souls completely on their own. That sort of connection can't be faked; nor can it be found solely coasting off the waves of nostalgia.
More than anything, BORN TO BE is a reminder of what The Bouncing Souls have always been about: building something bigger than themselves. In a world and society that constantly tries to divide, they're still making the sort of music that brings people from all over the world together.
With one leg already behind them, The Bouncing Souls will continue their BORN TO BE tour in just a few weeks, performing songs from the album as well as celebrating anniversaries of Maniacal Laughter, How I Spent My Summer Vacation, and The Gold Record. They'll be joined by The Suicide Machines, who will be performing their album Destruction by Definition each night.
