Denver, CO punk upstarts Public Opinion have announced their upcoming sophomore album, The Curse of Public Opinion, arriving August 7th via SideOneDummy.

Clocking in at a mean. 23 minutes, The Curse of Public Opinion is loaded with fuck-you anthems that plumb the depths of existential disappointment through a sneering cocktail of 2000s garage rock swagger, classic punk hooks, and hardcore ferocity. Plenty of albums provide the soundtrack for picking yourself back up, but Public Opinion are there for when you're getting kicked while you're down.
