Australian pop-punk quintet Fake News have dropped the second single from their upcoming EP.

“Not Giving Up” is a fist pumping anthem to stave off adversity, as Fake News continue to pick up acclaim with their frank and hook-heavy brand of melodic punk.

Watch the lyric video HERE.

The track is taken from the band’s upcoming EP Time & Place set for release on May 29th, 2024.

Speaking on the new track, lead vocalist Tim Russ shares: “Not Giving Up” is about how much we go through, and a reminder to keep fighting. It reflects on this band and how hard we have fought to keep it alive. The more we succeed the more people try to bring us down. Our latest single is about standing your ground and not giving up, no matter what the world throws at you!”

Blasting through your speakers with a fist-pumping blend of catchy hooks, punchy lyricism and exhilarating riffs, Gold Coast quintet Fake News have honed an unabashed and expressive brand of modern punk rock.

The Queensland outfit have cut their teeth supporting some of punk’s iconic names, from Lagwagon to Pennywise, Darko to A Wilhelm Scream and their star continued to rise with the release of 2021 debut LP Everyday Warrior.

The record documents the highs and lows of modern life with a relatable narrative and an unerringly grounded delivery. Lead single “Checking In” and boisterous anthem “Broken Bones” led the way, with contemporary pop-punk intertwining with nods to some of the 90’s finest purveyors of the genre.

2023 EP Take Me Away was a fitting follow up, as the band continued to fine tune their infectious combination of urgent and melodic, winning over alternative music fans the width and breadth of Australia and beyond.

Following on from last month’s “Moving On”, new single “Not Giving Up” is adorned with heart and abundant with melody, an infectious and moreish brand of modern punk. The track is taken from Time & Place, set for release on May 29th.
