Belfast punk band Problem Patterns just dropped their latest single, “I’m Fine and I’m Doing Great,” and it’s a punchy, heartfelt anthem about burnout, band life, and holding it together with duct tape and sarcasm. Out now via Alcopop! Records, the track is the lead single from their upcoming EP Boring Songs For Boring People, due out September 12.
The song captures the tension between chasing your passion and the toll it takes—tour exhaustion, missed connections, endless pressure. Lines like “Omg I’m living the dream… Help me” hit hard, balancing humor with raw honesty.
Known for switching instruments and sharing vocal duties, Problem Patterns channel that same chaotic energy here. The production (courtesy of Niall Doran at Start Together Studios) keeps things tight without losing the edge.
If you’ve ever run yourself ragged doing what you love, this track gets it.
