LESS THAN JAKE Releases New Single "BROKEN WORDS" via Pure Noise Records!
Ska-punk legends Less Than Jake have released their newest single "Broken Words" - out now via Pure Noise Records - marking the band's first original music in years. This track explores the theme of miscommunication and the frustration of messages getting lost in translation. A culmination of their best work yet, “Broken Words” delivers the ska, the pop-punk, and the horn lines that feel like a Less Than Jake party. Fans can check out the single and music video, here: https://youtu.be/aOINRkPIrqs.
“Hey guys! 2024 brings us some new LTJ songs, and this is a fun one!” shares Roger Lima. “‘Broken Words’ has the ska, the pop-punk, and the horn lines that feel like a party and I can’t wait to belt this one out on stage!”
He continues: “It happens to me, too. I’ll try to say something, (maybe I didn’t choose the best words, but I tried), they get misinterpreted and I end up unintentionally communicating something I didn’t mean at all. Know that feeling? Yeah, words are totally broken sometimes.”
The “Broken Words” art reveals the first piece of a treasure map, alluding to more being revealed as time goes on. Stay tuned to see what else Less Than Jake has in store this year..
Fans around the world can catch Less Than Jake on the road throughout the rest of 2024. The band will be on tour in Europe this summer, before returning to the States for the Final Visit To Rockview Tour. Less Than Jake will also be heading to Jamaica in early 2025 for the inaugural Wake And Bake Jamaica, featuring Bowling For Soup, The Bouncing Souls, and Punk Rock Karaoke.

More than three decades into an already impressive career – which includes 8 studio albums, tours with Descendents, blink-182, Bon Jovi, Linkin Park, Snoop Dogg, Bad Religion, and more, and over 365 shows on the Vans Warped Tour – Less Than Jake has never been a band to rest on its laurels. They released their lastest studio album, Silver Linings in 2020 via Pure Noise Records, with a deluxe version following in 2022. Featuring singles “Lie To Me,” “Dear Me,” “Anytime and Anywhere,” and “Keep On Chasing,” Silver Linings captured the attention of Brooklyn Vegan, Loudwire, SPIN, and more.
