Angel Du$t have returned with their first releases of 2023—the double-singles “Very Aggressive” featuring Citizen’s Mat Kerekes and “Love Slam.”
“Very Aggressive” is a high-energy, true-to-form punk rock track reminiscent of classic 70s-style punk. The single starts with a chaotic, driving drum beat and catchy guitar riff all anchored by frontman Justice Tripp’s dynamic vocal delivery. Mat Kerekes’ guest vocals throughout the infectious chorus offer a unique dimension to the song, allowing the track to stand out amongst Angel Du$t’s extensive discography. Check out the accompanying music video for “Very Aggressive” below.

“This was the first time I’ve ever produced our music myself,” Justice Tripp shares. “I think what’s important about that is the freedom to try anything you have in mind. Rock ’n’ roll is such a broad spectrum of music but I think sometimes people will focus in on just one thing. I wanted to try and represent a lot of different angles—all of the things Angel Du$t has been so far. It feels like we’re just totally off the leash.”
On the other hand, “Love Slam” is a more experimental composition propelled by punchy guitars, pulsating percussion, and a captivating chorus fueled by Tripp’s spirited and dynamic delivery, with harmonies interwoven to lend a gentle, nuanced quality to the track. Listen to both “Very Aggressive” and “Love Slam” below.
