Today, Liverpool-based punk, trash-pop outfit, Gen and The Degenerates share a hot slice of brand-new music with their infectious new track ‘Wahoo,’ available now via Marshall Records. Fans can stream the track and find more info—HERE. Inspired by personal loss and collective struggles with mental health and resilience, Gen and co have faced numerous highs and lows since the release of their critically acclaimed debut album ‘ANTI-FUN PROPAGANDA.’ Collaborating with celebrated producer-engineer Tarek Musa (Circa Waves, Nova Twins, Gengar), their latest track, ‘Wahoo,’ embodies an amalgamation of triumph, conflict, and catharsis. The song also marks the beginning of a new era for the band, as two members depart. “…It was written in the immediate aftermath of the loss of a close childhood friend”, shares vocalist Genevieve Glynn-Reeves. “It’s a rant, or a kind of unhinged monologue, about those times when you try to speed-run through grief, or any difficult feelings, like you’re trying to ‘complete’ them, to get back to normal. The song also functions as a part of that process, trying to get feelings out as quickly as possible and translate them into something fun. “It felt appropriate to put this track out now, especially with two of our members leaving, for reasons related to mental health. This song marks a brand-new era for us. People can expect a new sound, but with the same Degenerates spirit. Obviously, as a friend, it’s been a difficult transition. Jay and Jake’s leaving has been another kind of grief; however, the drastic shift has been invigorating in its own way. “Myself, Sean and Evan are more dedicated to, and excited about, the journey of this band than we ever have been, and as an artist, I feel like the loss has left more space for us to grow and create new and interesting paths to follow and see where they go.” Be sure to check out Gen and The Degenerates live at this year’s 2000trees festival, and join us in celebrating their new era and new single ‘Wahoo’ by clicking the artwork below.
