As soon as we heard the first note of the new single, “American Farts”, from The Boy Detective, we were immediately captivated. The vibe and electrifying sound of “American Farts “ is enough to stop Rush Hour traffic.
Produced by Roger Lima (Less Than Jake) and mixed/mastered by Eric Taft (The Dangerous Summer, Cliffdiver, We Are The Union), “American Farts” is a blast of melody, humor, and heart — a classic ska-punk singalong tailor-made for road trips, basement shows, and bad days turned good. The song’s high-octane horns, shout-along chorus, and warm sense of humor make it an instant anthem for anyone who’s ever needed a musical pick-me-up.
“Sometimes you just want to take your partner out for a ride, crank up the stereo, roll down the windows and sing out your lungs. The little things, that’s all…”
— Benny Capaul (vocals)
Following the success of 2024’s Art Theft, The Boy Detective return with their sophomore full-length Disco Lunch — a riotous, high-energy record that doubles down on their signature mix of ska-core grooves, punk urgency, and self-aware humor. From blistering horn lines to melodic hooks and lyrical absurdity, the band delivers an album that’s as infectious as it is heartfelt.
“When we say we threw everything and the kitchen sink in, we meant it. Disco Lunch is ten songs that span almost two decades. We’ve opened the vault, collected, and distributed these gems for you. So go ahead and take out a withdrawal on Disco Lunch—you’ll be thankful for the wait. Let’s boogie!”
— Benny Capaul (vocals)
