A wider sound on GOTTA GET OUT

According to Pitchfork's description, the band expands its sound on this major-label debut, translating "post-adolescent anxiety" into pop-punk shaded with new wave, hardcore and post-punk textures.

Where the band's earlier material leaned on straightforward punk arrangements, GOTTA GET OUT puts the unease and restlessness of growing up at its center, running through the album as a throughline.

From DIY scene to major label

The Linda Lindas are a four-piece who built their reputation through Los Angeles local shows and the DIY scene, releasing earlier work through independent labels. GOTTA GET OUT marks the band's first album released under a major label.
