Denver, CO punk upstarts Public Opinion recently announced their upcoming sophomore album, The Curse of Public Opinion, and today they're back with another ferocious new single, "When Kevin Gets Free." The new song follows lead single "Balloon Man Running" (which drew praise from Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, Alt Press, and more) and showcases Public Opinion's ability to seamlessly combine eye-bulching anger with unbridled melody. It's a primal rock & roll song for hanging onto grudges, and it's sure to help you blow off a little steam--even if only for two minutes. Fans of The Hives, Spiritual Cramp and The Vines blend of melodic post-punk and punchy alt-rock should enjoy this.
