3 mins read

Comeback Kid, the Canadian melodic hardcore vets, have announced their latest sonic venture with the release of their single “Trouble In The Winners Circle” from their new EP “Trouble“, set to drop on March 15th, 2024. Check out the full music video above!

This announcement comes alongside news that the band has joined the roster of Sharptone Records, signaling a new chapter in their already illustrious career.

On the track, vocalist Andrew Neufeld states: “‘Trouble In The Winner’s Circle’ is about public meltdowns. Having the world crashing down on you on display for the masses to see like peering into a fishbowl. It’s a tongue and cheek rock anthem driving its point to the bitter end.”

Comeback Kid

The single, “Trouble In The Winners Circle,” showcases Comeback Kid’s signature blend of hardcore ferocity and melodic sensibilities.

Interestingly, the track features a chorus with a vibe that could seamlessly fit into a hair metal band’s repertoire. Listen for yourself!

Produced and recorded by the band and John Paul Peters at Private Ear Recording in their hometown of Winnipeg during 2023, the TROUBLE EP is a testament to Comeback Kid’s unwavering commitment to pushing forward on their own terms.

The band set out to create an almost palette cleanser from past material, leaning more upbeat, but still carrying the hard-hitting aggression they’re known for. With mixing and mastering from Will Putney, you can hear the layers and depth of sound the band carved out in every track on the release. TROUBLE EP is a hit to the senses and can be preordered now through SharpTone Records.

In addition to the title track, the upcoming EP promises more adrenaline-fueled tracks like “Disruption” and “ChompinAt The Bit,” as well as “Breaking and Bruised“.

“Trouble In The Winners Circle” lyrics:

Conquer the world take it by any means
It’s gonna wanna get it’s revenge
Like crabs in barrel, and you’ve got
Enemies saying …
“If I can’t have it neither can you”
If love is the
Touchstone of virtue
Then it’s been a paramount disaster
Star vanity’s glowing and it’s burnt you
That must’ve embarrassed you
Second to none!

Trouble in the winners circle
(Trouble, trouble)
What got you in trouble in the winners circle?
(Success and persuasion, without
Hesitation)
What got you in

Rushing to survive
Destiny on a timeline
Rushing to survive
Destiny on a timeline

Envy! Baited!
Destiny tainted
Appalling embellishment
But you missed the cue

Trouble in the winners circle
(Trouble, trouble)
What got you in trouble in the winners circle?
(Success and persuasion, without
Hesitation)
What got you in

Conquer the world take it by any means
Saying …
“If I can’t have it neither can you”
Conquer the world take it by any means
Saying …
“If I can’t have it neither can you”

Dig a grave the mess you made
Aftermath of infamy
Dig a grave the mess you made
Aftermath of infamy

What got you in trouble in the winners circle
(Trouble, trouble)
What got you in trouble in the winners circle?
(Success and persuasion, without
Hesitation)
What got you in trouble in the winners circle
(Trouble, trouble)
What got you in
Trouble
