White Reaper - Asking For A Ride (January 27, 2023) • Page 13

Makes me want more White Reaper.

 

looks like they're still recording/mixing:

 

Looks like New music is coming on 6/25 per their Insta

 

Hell yeah

 

new profile pic, too

 

Excited to hear what's next.

 

Really interested to see how the rhythm section will sound going forward since that’s a huge part of this band’s sound.

 

Let’s go

 

Man, I think they will always be the ultimate “what could have been” band from Covid, besides maybe Spanish Love Songs. They were a rocket ship with Might Be Right, and had two other banger singles ready to go and the world just stopped for the most part.

 

Yep I think COVID definitely destroyed their momentum, 100%. Saw them three times between 2019 and Feb 2020 and they were unstoppable and so fucking good. At best I think they’ll be a band with a decent cult following but I don’t see them blowing up any bigger. It sucks to say cuz they’re so damn good.

 

I saw them in 2022 and 2023. Ruled both times, especially in 2023. That Asking For A Ride tour was sick.

 

This album needs to be great. Last one was okay IMO but not up to par with the previous two

 

Unfortunately, I kind of agree with this.

The band probably has one more album left with Elektra and if they don’t deliver on making their best record yet with the most hooks/catchy singles - then I wouldn’t be surprised if they were let go from Elektra.

If that happens - I also wouldn’t be surprised if the band called it quits.

 

It really sucks. They’ve also been support on a lot of big tours. I feel like that used to mean something. Now it’s “If your song isn’t big on TikTok, you ain’t worth a damn.” It sucks but it’s true sometimes.

 

You’re not wrong and they were even featured on Taco Bell commercials yet still… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am listening to Asking For A Ride now and it is a solid record for sure with some absolute bangers on it but YDL is still much stronger.

 

If their next album could be a hybrid of the punk energy of Asking for a Ride and the catchy hooks of YDL, this could be their best album yet. Hope it sells well and does well for them.

 

This

 

New radio interview about the new single

 

Revisiting AFAR. Pink Slip is so fucking cool.

 

Highlights:
- 10 track album but they recorded more for a quick follow-up
- The band’s new focus is going to be putting out more music than normal and keep the touring more measured

 

I need me a good mix of pop rock songs and punk songs along with more White Reaper fast food commercials

 

Album coming in September ‘Only Slightly Empty’. They’re now on Blue Grape music

 

Honestly is such a groover! Whoever is on drums is killing it.

 

Pre order is up on Blue Grape
