FIDLAR 2015 40 Oz On Repeat music video screenshot

Following FIDLAR’s amazing beer-bong-chug of a first album, the band has been busy not falling off the face of the Earth since 2013 with one-off singles, Sheryl Crow covers, and raucous festival performances, but even with all of that, the group recently found some time to head back to the studio (with a producer this time!) to record its highly-anticipated album number two—titled…Too.

The first single, “40oz. On Repeat,” has arrived as well, along with a surprisingly detailed TRL-inspired music video mocking (and paying tribute to) classic Carson Daly-era MTV-type videos, which provides a hallmark moment for those of you who were hoping to see Zac Carper do his best Mark McGrath impression. (OK, maybe there will be other opportunities.)

That’s the Beggar’s Banquet 2.0 album artwork for Too below, as well as the tracklist and new FIDLAR tour dates. Don’t miss ’em.
