Canadian pop-punk quintet, We Were Sharks, are gearing up for the release of their new album New Low, with the debut of its first single Shameless.

Melting together the warm and raw tonality of old school radio-punk popularized by acts like Sum 41 and blink 182, with the undeniable catchiness of its modern offspring — Shameless is sure to get any fan of the genre headbanging within an instant.

Focusing on the lack of shame within individuals when it comes to peer validation and the pressure to comply with societal standards — the track’s catchy, yet devil-may-care take on contemporary dilemmas, puts the angsty call for anarchy we’ve been missing back into punk.

Adding to the song’s pack-a-punch lyrics are the low rumbling basslines, vehement guitar chugs, crashing percussion and vexed vocals that are irresistible from start to finish helping cement We Were Sharks and their highly anticipated new album as ones to watch this year.

Speaking on the new single, the band shares:

‘Shameless’ is an in-depth look at how this generation seeks instant gratification, willing to do anything for a quick ‘like’ to sell their souls for 15 minutes of fame.
