Out today is ‘Punk Goes Pop Vol. 7′. Previous tracks released from the compilation have included The Amity Affliction’s re-imagining of The Weeknd’s ‘Can’t Feel My Face’ which was added to rotation on triple j earlier this month, Dance Gavin Dance’s take on Bruno Mars’ catchy number ‘That’s What I Like’, which has already racked up over half a million plays on YouTube and State Champs taking on the Shawn Mendez favourite ‘Stitches’ which was released overnight. 

Punk Goes Pop’s seventh incarnation comprises a stellar track listing with further covers from the likes of Australia’s very own Eat Your Heart Out, New Years Day, as well as rising stars such as Boston Manor, Seaway and Too Close To Touch taking on pop juggernauts Twenty One Pilots, Drake, James Bay, Drake and more. It’s a diverse and exciting clutch of new renditions that will no doubt become firm favourites within the genre.

The series has sold over 2.5 million albums to date, making it the top selling compilation in alternative music. Previous volumes in the Punk Goes Pop series have featured hit bands such as A Day To Remember, The All-American Rejects, Rise Against, Pierce The Veil, All Time Low, PVRIS, Sleeping With Sirens, Asking Alexandria, Taking Back Sunday and Thrice. Punk Goes Pop Vol. 6 debuted at #19 on the Billboard Top 200 in the US and, in addition to a mammoth sales history, the series has hundreds of thousands of followers across its social networks with singles over past releases still clocking up ridiculous numbers of streams.
