Pop Drunk Snot Bread is the eleventh studio album by the American rock band Bowling for Soup,[3] released on April 22,2022,by Brando/Que-so Records.[2] The album's title is a play on the term "pop punk's not dead".[4] It is their first studio album since 2016's Drunk Dynasty,as well as the first to feature Rob Felicetti on bass and backing vocals,following former bassist Erik Chandler's departure from the band in 2019,[5] and is their last studio album with lead guitarist Chris Burney before his retirement in 2025. It is also the band's final album to be recorded as a quartet,as they chose not to replace Burney following his departure.
Following the band's 2016 effort Drunk Dynasty,they originally intended to just release singles,"as that's what people listen to now". However,they recorded a full album in the Poconos to be able to spend more time together.[6]
The album's debut single,"Alexa Bliss",came to be when Reddick found out Bliss' favorite band was Bowling For Soup.[7] After some back-and-forth friendly exchanges,and asking his neighbor for bulletpoints on her and her career,Reddick and Linus of Hollywood wrote the song in a night.[8] Bliss appears in the music video,which released on February 6,2020.[9] The band were set to perform the song during WrestleMania 36,but it was cancelled due to COVID-19.[10]
The second single,"Getting Old Sucks (But Everybody's Doing It)",released on May 7,2021,incorporated by a music video made by the Roche family the same day,which depicts the band as puppets.[11] On November 19,2021,the third single,"Killin' 'Em With Kindness",released,with which Reddick said “Watching the news these days is a nightmare for me. It seems that everyone ‘believes’so greatly on certain issues,that we forget the people on the other side are still human beings. It’s so easy to be kind to one another. And a little kindness does go a very long way.”[12] The album announcement coincided with the release of the fourth single "I Wanna Be Brad Pitt" on February 25,2022.[13]
