The American punk rock band from Pennsylvania will perform at Mighty Sounds after a long hiatus. Since 2006, The Menzingers’ music has combined the honest energy of punk with catchy melodies and emotional lyrics. The band’s breakthrough came with the 2012 album On the Impossible Past, which won critical acclaim and earned The Menzingers a loyal fan base. Their lyrics often reflect on growing up, nostalgia, and the daily struggles of life, and their sound is characterized by the contrast between the two voices of their singers, Greg Barnett and Tom May. Live, they are renowned for their intense, sincere, and captivating energy. They are one of the most respected bands on the modern punk scene, with each new album showing a shift from classic punk to broader rock influences. Their fans love their signature anthemic choruses, which in no way detract from their authenticity. The Menzingers are a symbol that punk can age gracefully without losing its energy.
