Beauty School Dropout just dropped their debut LP, WHERE DID ALL THE BUTTERFLIES GO? and it’s nothing short of dazzling. After traveling on massive tours and releasing singles “Sex Appeal,” “On Your Lips,” “Two Of Us,” and “Fever,” it’s clear that this album is just the start of something truly amazing for rock ‘n’ roll’s future. With dynamic modern-rock riffs, sultry lyrics, and utterly electric choruses, WHERE DID ALL THE BUTTERFLIES GO? is thrilling from start to finish.
Alongside the album’s release, the band shared the official music video for “Heart Away.” The band notes, “We want this song to feel like an electric night on the dance floor with heavy-hitting riffs and even stickier hooks. This one is meant to be a bandage for the broken hearts out there.”
The rock quartet says of the record, “‘WHERE DID ALL THE BUTTERFLIES GO?’ is a story about unrequited love and the lengths we go to fill its void—whether in romance, work, or any part of life that feels endlessly unfulfilled. It’s about the irony of our vices, the ways we cope, and the joy and chaos we chase just to get it out of our system. It’s a hedonistic dream. A rock and roll revival.”
They add, “The album started as a batch of self-produced demos after a year of worldwide touring alongside acts like blink-182, Turnstile, JXDN, and more. We wanted to make rock music feel fun again. When’s the last time you walked into a party and a band was playing? We want to change that. With legendary producer Neal Avron, we took a more traditional, live approach that pushed us toward a rawer, more honest sound than we’d ever captured—walls of guitars, cutting-edge synths, and stadium-sized hooks. Party shit.”
