WALLPAPER. Release New Single on iTunes Today
The genre-defying pop band Wallpaper. released a new single, “Good 4 It,” on iTunes today. The track, which is currently being spun at Alternative radio, is the theme song to VH1’s new show Wicked Single (premiering simultaneously on MTV and VH1 March 17th) and can also be heard in ESPN’s promotional bumpers and teasers for its current programming. With its mix of swagger and vulnerability, “Good 4 It” invokes the essential function of friendship in times of real trauma. A video for the track will be released in early April.
Watch the lyric video:
In 2012, Wallpaper. signed to Epic Records to bring Ricky Reed’s absurdist world-view to a broader audience. In the last year, Wallpaper. has performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Last Call With Carson Daly, been nominated for a “Breaking Woodie” at the Woodie Awards, and performed a well-received set at Coachella. Nylon remarked last summer: “Wallpaper. is a bonafide hustler and gifted producer, expertly blurring glittery pop and raunchy rap with authentic rock and electric funk.” Wallpaper. will bring their party-starting live show to this year’s SXSW Festival in Austin next week, and will also join the Vans Warped Tour line-up this summer when their debut album for Epic Records/Boardwalk Music Group will be released. Check all of the Wallpaper. tour dates HERE!
For all of you that think we should cover nothing but hard rock/metal, we say this to you, “If it ROCKS…we ROLL with it!” is our tag line and we fucking mean it! These guys” rock” and deserve major props for their success thus far and we’ve been jamming to this song all day. It kind of grows on you…in a good way; not like a fungus or anything. Give it a listen or two!
