The Catastrophes – “For the Boys”

Nashville’s The Catastrophes crank up the volume and camaraderie on their latest single, “For the Boys.” Pulled from their upcoming debut album Self-Storage Soundtrack (out September 19 via Pier Rat Records), the track channels the raw, punchy energy of late-’90s melodic punk with a modern edge.

“For the Boys” hits like a barroom anthem made for sweaty shows and long drives with the windows down. Fueled by sharp riffs, rapid-fire drums, and gravel-tinged vocals, it’s a rally cry for friendship, loyalty, and growing up punk. There’s no posturing here—just heart, urgency, and a knack for melody that sticks.

True to their name, The Catastrophes revel in the beautiful mess of punk rock life, and this track captures that chaos with clarity. If this is the sound of the full album, it’s one to watch.
