Hamilton, Ontario’s The Penske File have released Lions, the latest single from their forthcoming album Reprieve, due October 3 on Stomp Records.
Built on driving melodies and heartfelt lyricism, Lions captures the band’s ability to weave nostalgia and urgency into a single breath. The track reflects on growing older, shifting friendships, and embracing change, while keeping the energy raw and celebratory.
Recorded largely live at Halo Studios with producer Adam Michael, the song carries an immediacy that mirrors the band’s raucous live shows. It’s a reminder of why The Penske File remain one of Canada’s most consistent and emotionally resonant punk rock acts.
With Lions, the band offer a glimpse of what’s to come on Reprieve—an album poised to further cement their place in modern melodic punk.
