Pup releases music video for “Concrete” after a year of production

Canadian punk rock band PUP recently unveiled their music video for “Concrete” after a year-long creative process. The band also shared a new track called “If This Is It” as part of their continued success following the release of their album “Who Will Look After The Dogs?”

PUP’s latest album has garnered critical acclaim, with reviewers praising the band’s bold and aggressive sound. Described as “sonically maximalist” by NPR and hailed as one of the greatest rock acts of their generation by Stereogum, PUP has solidified their reputation in the punk rock scene. The band’s commitment to self-improvement and introspection shines through in their music, earning them a loyal fan base.

The music video for “Concrete” is a visually striking piece of art that took nearly a year to complete. Director Sterling Larose and a team of designers and animators meticulously crafted each frame by hand, resulting in a stop-motion video featuring 2,300 frames of animation. The band’s performance was captured and transformed into magazine covers, tabloids, and fake ads, creating a unique visual experience for viewers.

In addition to the music video, PUP surprised fans with a new song, “If This Is It,” recorded during the “Who Will Look After The Dogs?” sessions. The band’s lead singer, Stefan Babcock, expressed his excitement for the new video and song, emphasizing the incredible effort and dedication that went into their creation.

Despite releasing a video for a song that’s been out for a year, PUP remains dedicated to their artistic vision and creative endeavors. The band’s willingness to experiment and push boundaries sets them apart in the music industry, showcasing their commitment to authenticity and passion for their craft.

Following the success of “Who Will Look After The Dogs?”, PUP has continued to tour extensively, delighting fans with their energetic live performances. With upcoming shows scheduled in the UK, France, Belgium, and the US, PUP shows no signs of slowing down. Their impressive lineup of tour dates includes headlining performances at major festivals and a co-headline show with Jimmy Eat World to celebrate the 10th anniversary of “The Dream is Over.”
