Charger have released a new 12" single on Pirates Press Records, a UV digitally printed vinyl with pristine artwork on the record itself, a new type of picture disc from Pirates Press.

In addition to the new material, the band will play a few California dates with Old Firm Casuals to close out the year, uniting to Rancid-related projects on the same stage.

Charger is Andrew McGee (guitar), Matt Freeman (bass/vocals), and Jason Willer (drums/vocals). Old Firm Casuals features Lars Frederiksen, who plays with Freeman in Rancid. Charger released a self-titled 7-song EP earlier this year.
