New Found Glory Shares New Single & Tour

Pop-punk lifers New Found Glory are back with another new track, and it’s a loud, scrappy nod to where they came from. The band just dropped their latest single, “Beer and Blood Stains,” a riff-heavy blast that somehow manages to sound like a party while documenting the chaos of their earliest club days.

Guitarist Chad Gilbert calls it the heaviest song on the upcoming record, inspired by a long-gone venue where New Found Glory cut their teeth playing alongside hardcore bands nearly every weekend. Fights, sketchy behavior, questionable decisions – all of it rolled into a song that looks back fondly while acknowledging just how close to the edge they were living back then.

The new single appears on Listen Up!, New Found Glory’s first full-length album in nearly six years, due out February 20 via Pure Noise Records. The album leans hard into themes of resilience, gratitude, and pushing forward, shaped in part by the band’s shared history and Gilbert’s ongoing health battles. It’s classic NFG energy with a little more lived-in perspective.

On the live front, the band will be hitting the road this spring with Yellowcard on the Up Up Down Down Tour, joined by Plain White T’s. The tour includes a Denver stop on May 20th at The Junkyard, a fitting setting for a band whose roots are wrapped up in barely contained chaos. The Junkyard is one of those no-frills, gritty Denver spaces where the sound is loud, the crowd is right on top of the band, and the energy feels closer to a basement show than a polished arena night. In other words, exactly the kind of place where New Found Glory songs hit hardest.
