BAYSIDE premieres new song and lyric video “Dancing like an idiot”

Some fresh news about the post-punk New Yorkers who released their newest effort last year on Hopeless records...

Queens punk rockers Bayside have partnered with Billboard to premiere their brand new song and lyric video “Dancing Like An Idiot”.
The song comes from Bayside’s forthcoming Cult White Edition, a special edition double LP reissue of the band’s latest album, Cult.

On “Dancing Like An Idiot,” lead singer Anthony Raneri tells us: “There is no such thing as bad music. Music, like any art form, is subject to people’s opinion and for every person who thinks a band is bad, there is someone who loves them. My problem is with artists that are actually responsible for dumbing down the youth. Encouraging ignorance instead of encouraging morals and encouraging the youth to be a better generation. When I wrote the song, I was thinking about the sarcastic remarks that people make about how the movie “Idiocracy” was coming true or this or that about “kids these days”. Instead of complaining about kids these days, I decided to talk about the people responsible for kids these days.”

In celebration of their 15th Anniversary, Bayside will also be re-issuing their newest – and highest charting – album Cult as a special edition double LP. The Cult White Edition will feature four bonus tracks, including “Dancing Like an Idiot” and “Indiana” from the band’s Record Store Day 2014 exclusive 7”.

With each purchase of this special vinyl edition of Cult, Bayside and our non-profit Sub City will make a donation to The Human Rights Campaign (HRC). The Human Rights Campaign represents a force of nearly 2 million members and supporters nationwide. As the largest national lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender civil rights organization, HRC envisions an America where LGBT people are ensured of their basic equal rights, and can be open, honest and safe at home, at work and in the community.
