New Found Glory is Back with a Bang: Get Ready for 'Listen Up!'

Attention, pop-punk fans! Ready your playlists because New Found Glory is back, and they're firing on all cylinders with their 11th studio album, Listen Up! Dropping on February 20 via Pure Noise Records, this 10-track powerhouse marks their big return after a six-year wait. 🚀🎸

Who are these legends? Formed way back in 1997 in Coral Springs, Florida, the band includes the charismatic crew of Jordan Pundik (vocals), Chad Gilbert (guitar), Ian Grushka (bass), and Cyrus Bolooki (drums). Fast forward nearly 30 years, and they're still rocking hard!

Behind the scenes: 'Listen Up!' isn't just music; it's a testament to the band's perseverance, with Gilbert courageously facing a tough battle with metastatic cancer. This album takes you on a journey from introspection back to their roots with that fast-paced, riff-drivin' sound we fell in love with. From opening track “Boom Roasted” to closing number “Frankenstein’s Monster,” you’ll be headbanging from start to finish!

The album also covers fresh territory with tracks like “A Love Song” and fan favorites “Beer and Blood Stains,” “Treat Yourself,” and “Laugh It Off.” As Gilbert puts it, “We wanted to make something that really focused on how lucky we are.” Grab those feels with “Beer and Blood Stains,” reminiscing the good old days with the lyric, “It’s good to be alive.”

Collaborative beats: The writing vibes were set in Nashville, where Bolooki and Grushka linked up with Gilbert. The outcome? Some fresh riffs that serve major throwback feels to their OG style!

Tour alert! Can’t wait to hear them live? New Found Glory is hitting the road for the epic Up Up Down Down Tour with Yellowcard and The Plain White T’s. Kicking off May 6 in Atlanta and wrapping up June 20 in Springfield. Get ready for sick shows in Chicago, Denver, Nashville, New York, and more!

Oh, and they’re not stopping Stateside! Catch them in Indonesia on May 3 at Hammersonic 2026, and they’ll also be rockin' out at festivals like Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival in May and making waves on the legendary Vans Warped Tour in places like Washington, D.C., Mexico City, and Orlando.
