THIRSTY CURSES – “PUNK ROCK RUINED MY LIFE”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE
The prolific and eclectic Thirsty Curses are back with a new single and accompanying music video today called “Punk Rock Ruined My Life”. The song sprung out of an inside joke among band members and a few of their friends about all the different ways punk rock had ruined their lives. The joke later grew into an entire narrative about establishing a philanthropic organization to speak at high schools and pass out Eagles records to kids….and ultimately into a Thirsty Curses song. The music video provides a peek at Thirsty Curses frontman Wilson Getchell and bass player extraordinaire Clayton Herring busking in their hometown Raleigh, NC, a site to which visitors of downtown Raleigh have grown accustomed to…and probably heard “Punk Rock Ruined My Life” blasting on the streets before.
“Punk Rock Ruined My Life” is the first new music from Thirsty Curses since their 2022 full length album To The Ends of The Earth, which included the singles “Jenny” and “Nothing Really Matters”, a song previously featured by Spill Magazine. Close followers of Thirsty Curses may recognize “Punk Rock Ruined My Life”, as the tune has been part of Thirsty Curses’ live set for some time. Fortunately, the band finally got around to recording it in December 2022. Today, the global movement begins…
