Lunchbox Share Over Way Too Soon Video

In less than two weeks, Lunchbox will be dropping After School Special, their enchanting new LP. But, in listening to this brand new single, I think the world over is going to have some strong feelings to the track’s thematic message; it’s set “against the backdrop of the ever-changing Oakland cityscape,” with a friendly ghost frolicking about town to emphasize that all the things we love and hold dear, “nothing can ever stay the same.” Of course, two decades of pop from Tim and Donna definitely feel familiar, giving off a sense of comfort amidst the harrowing theme. I love how the horns sort of burst through those jangling guitar stabs and push the pop envelope just a bit more. There’s no such thing as too much pop! After School Special will be out on October 30th via Slumberland Records/Lost Sound Tapes.

Fresh Single from Lunchbox

Let’s face it. The world is shit. Absolute. But, instead of giving up hope and or going through every day with that chip on my shoulder, I’ve decided its best if I just find these little breadcrumbs to a better life. Today, I share one of those with you in this new Lunchbox single. Blasting horns set me off, immediately. Maybe it was my affinity for 3rd wave ska, or something about a good brass section that just livens your day, but mix that in with those scuffling indiepop guitar sounds and Donna’s melodic performance, and I’m following this band to a better day. After School Special will definitely be a silver lining to 2020; it drops on October 30th via Slumberland Records.

New Lunchbox Single

The last time I covered Lunchbox was over five years ago with their Smash Hits EP for Jigsaw Records, but, with a new LP on the horizon, it’s high-time we return to an ATH favorite. It doesn’t take long for the chairs to kick in here either, offering up that swirling jangle and steady drum bop from the get-go. Donna gets the front of the vocal mix, but Tim’s support adds a nice textural layer to the melody; it’s what makes us pop fans wilt and fall to our knees in praise. We get an added bonus with some horns from Gary Olson (who dropped a fine LP on his own earlier this year). It should come as no surprise then that this After School Special is coming your way on October 30th via Slumberland Records.
