Today is a big day for Lil Lotus. The pop-punk artist and rapper just announced his sophomore record nosebleeder, which will be released on December 1 via Epitaph Records. Giving fans a taste of what to expect, Lotus just dropped the title track, which grapples with themes of mental health and addiction through a rock-forward arrangement.

Produced by pop-punk masters Mike Pepe (Taking Back Sunday, Charlotte Sands) and Matt Malpass (blink-182, nothing, nowhere.), we can expect this second full-length to be… Read more »
