Bayside Release "Anywhere But Here" Featuring New B-Side + Four Fan Faves

Since their formation in 2000, BAYSIDE have been the purveyors of heartbreak that you can sing along and sink your teeth into. The Queens' 4-piece consistently craft perfect blends of gritty punk energy and razor-sharp pop hooks, giving the alternative world emotionally raw storytelling wrapped up in punchy catchiness that mirrors the chaotic world we live in.

Between wars, COVID, political unrest and more, the bar to reach happiness continues to be raised every year. That in mind, BAYSIDE have tapped into times where punk music reigned supreme and the scene was united in their goal to find the bands that made beats that encouraged us all to sing along.

BAYSIDE are bringing us Christmas in June with Anywhere But Here; a collection of 5-songs that have been carefully plucked from a discography littered with Billboard-charted hits and Warped Tour favorites including mainstays like "Devotion And Desire" (+30M streams) and "The Walking Wounded." The album art alone is a personal and intimate gift to their fans, illustrated by drummer Chris Guglielmo, bringing it back to basics in the most authentic, dutiful way. 

Listen to "Monster," a previously digitally unreleased single from their 2011 album Killing Time, here.

Watch the visualizer here.

 The song was only available on the album's vinyl pressing... until now!

For a band that has overcome adversity and is continually fueled by the most loyal, multi-generational fanbase, it is BAYSIDE's endurance and dedication to providing some of the best live performances decades in, that should be studied. The band just wrapped a tour with former labelmates and fellow 2000s favorite, TAKING BACK SUNDAY, and if 2026 has proven us anything, it is that nostalgia isn't only welcomed, it is urgently requested and unequivocally vital in unearthing that part of all of us who are hopeful for brighter days ahead.
