Southeastern Michigan ska punk sleuths The Boy Detective are back on the case with their sophomore full-length Disco Lunch, set for release November 7, 2025 via Punkerton Records. Today, the band has released the lead single, the horn-fueled anthem “Beth Truss,” alongside a music video.
Recorded by Roger Lima (Less Than Jake/Rehasher) and mixed/mastered by Eric Taft, “Beth Truss” showcases The Boy Detective plnety of rhythm section interplay, gang vocals built for sweaty singalongs, and a tight horn section. The track offers the first glimpse into Disco Lunch, a record that channels two decades of ideas, riffs, and ska-core chaos.
“This ancient song was taken off the shelf, dusted off, and reformatted to sonically invoke singalongs and brain-eating choruses and gang vocals, in the only way The Boy Detective knows best,” says vocalist Benny Capaul. “You’ll find yourself screaming these gang vocals and wanting to rage. In Beth we Truss!”
Disco Lunch is the band’s second full-length, following 2024’s Art Theft.
