Brooklyn punk band Two-Man Giant Squid (featured HERE) has burst onto the scene with their latest single, “Progress,” delivering a lively and spirited punk blitz that showcases their unique character and charisma. Known for their tongue-in-cheek lyricism, the band cleverly reminds listeners that progress isn’t always what it seems, cautioning against the deceptive allure of snake-oil salesmen peddling false promises of success. In a world filled with buzzwords and empty claims, “Progress” serves as a wake-up call, urging us to question the true meaning of advancement.

The song challenges conventional notions of progress, highlighting the prevalence of opportunists eager to exploit our desire for advancement. With lyrics that humorously invite listeners to “mix their brand with mine,” the band encourages us to be discerning in a world where everyone claims to have the key to success. It’s a refreshing take on the concept of progress, injecting a healthy dose of skepticism into our collective consciousness.
