Smartpunk Records' outspoken political punk rockers Debt Neglector have released their new single "Tough Luck, Kid!" from their upcoming full-length album "Kinda Rips," which is set to release on April 4, 2025 via Smartpunk Records. 

The track taps into a more personal and vulnerable side of the band as they explore the pressures and fears of fatherhood. The lyrical themes are set to the backdrop of Debt Neglector's signature fast-paced, anthemic punk sound. You can check it out here.

When discussing the single, Debt Neglector says, "This song is about the fear and insecurities I have after becoming a father. I’m so scared of passing on my anxiety and depression to my son. I’m trying so hard to be a good dad and want him to have an easier time than I did growing up. But are some of my issues hereditary? Is it completely unavoidable? Was I selfish for having a kid at all? I worry about these things literally all the time."
