Step into the gritty, sweat-soaked underground where misfit anthems reign supreme and modern rock royalty takes total control! Beloved Los Angeles rock outfit Starcrawler have just unleashed their blistering brand-new single “Kick Me,” arriving today alongside the massive announcement of their long-awaited fourth studio album of the same name, slated to drop on Friday, March 26, 2027.

• The Anatomy of a Misfit Anthem: Embracing their DIY roots and taking matters entirely into their own hands, Kick Me marks the band’s very first independent full-length project. Punchy, unapologetically guitar-driven, and dripping with raw attitude, “Kick Me” is a rallying cry for anyone living on the fringes of society. Starcrawler stare down their critics with absolute fearlessness—laughing right back at the doubters while cementing their place as torchbearers of the LA rock scene. As lead guitarist Henri Cash reveals about the song’s origins: “The idea for the song came one night thinking back to when I was a little kid, hating school and being super obsessed with Elvis Presley and playing the tuba… I was always getting into fights at school because I was the one weird freak that couldn’t relate to the rest of the other kids. We are all still weird freaks in our own ways, and that’s probably why we all get along so well.”
• Charging Toward 2027: Following the buzz of their earlier standalone single “On 2 U,” this new drop sets the stage for what promises to be their most defining and liberated era yet, proving that Starcrawler know exactly who they are and refuse to blink.

The MusicWayATX Verdict: “Kick Me” is a triumph of unbridled punk-rock energy and authentic misfit pride. Starcrawler deliver a knockout punch that proves rock and roll is alive, dangerous, and thriving.
