Stream Protomartyr’s Post-Punk Punisher ‘Scum, Rise!’

protomartyr, scum rise!, under color of official right

Who could resist a call-to-arms like “Scum, Rise!”? This anthem-to-be is extracted from Detroit punks Protomartyr’s sophomore album, Under Color of Official Right, due on April 8 and collecting 14 pummeling tracks into the band’s first full-length for Hardly Art. To help (un)ease the wait, the foursome — singer Joe Casey, guitarist Greg Ahee, bassist Scott Davidson, and drummer Alex Leonard — have fired off this single, which undercuts its rebellion with a cruel reminder: “There’s nothing you can do.” Stream “Scum, Rise!” below and scroll further for the full track list to Under Color of Official Right.
