Bayside Play Dodgeball in “Pigsty” Video

At the end of last week, Bayside had begun to leak a few snippets of what looked like a new music for them. They teased that the new video would be released on Monday (today) and now we have it.

The video is for “Pigsty,” one of the tracks from their recently released album, CULT.

The video begins with a shot of a high school with a sign for a dodgeball tournament. In the gymnasium, we see a bunch of people practicing when all of a sudden a group of kids, wearing yellow, bust in with their crazy (and maybe obsessive) coach. We say that because, well, he’s screaming a lot and even goes off on a referee in the process. Of course, if you start getting Dodgeball: An True Underdog Story vibes from the music video, then you are not alone.

Check out the video below.

Bayside will be heading out on a short tour this Fall with I am the Avalanche and Seaway beginning October 2 in Pawtucket, RI at The Met. Though these are just a few dates, don’t get discouraged. During the Vans Warped Tour, the band revealed that they will be heading out on a tour next year. We’re keeping our fingers crossed.

Bayside Announce New Album and Stream New Song

UPDATE: Looks like Bayside have released “Pigsty” for our listening pleasure already.

Check it out here:

———————————————————————————————————————————————————

Well, Bayside was trying to be cute and cryptic this past weekend by releasing several pictures for fans to ponder over until they released some big announcement this coming week, but it looks like Amazon has once again ruined the fun ahead of time.

In case you didn’t see, Bayside had released five photos which had some wondering just what it might mean even though our assumption was that a new album was on its way. Today, Amazon killed the suspense of the imminent announcement by posting up the album information including the title and album art ahead of time.

The album art which the band posted yesterday on their Twitter, seemed to meld together all the cryptic photos that had been unveiled during the weekend. The revelation also included the track list for the album which can be seen below as well as word that the first song to be for sale on iTunes will be, “Pigsty.”

CULT will be the band’s sixth studio album and is scheduled to be released on February 18. For fans wanting to already pre-order the album, they can head on over to Hopeless’ website and do so here.

Somehow we feel that Hopeless needs to tell the people at amazon to keep it shut until they are ready.

CULT TRACK LIST:

1. Big Cheese
2. Time Has Come
3. Hate Me
4. You’re No Match
5. Pigsty
6. Transitive Property
7. Stuttering
8. Bear With Me
