Brooklyn-based punks THE SO SO GLOS have today released their 3rd LP Kamikaze to the Aussie masses. Recorded by John Reis (Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes) and mixed by Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, Rilo Kiley, Cursive), Kamikaze 12 tracks of uncompromising, honest punk rock – kicking harder and faster than their previous releases, merging sarcasm with sincerity, and spirituality with social awareness.

On Kamikaze, THE SO SO GLOS explore rifts in society caused through heartbreak, hurricanes, feminism, climate change and nervous breakdowns – from hard-hitting punk anthem ‘Missionary’, about sticking to your guns, offering a fierce reminder that nothing and no one can hold you back, to ‘Inpatient’, the glimpse into one band member’s stay at an inpatient mental rehabilitation center. Front-man Alex Levine discusses the meaning behind the album as being about “using our self-imposed weapon – music…freedom of expression…respect for the individual, all that is a weapon.”
