Aggressive pop-punk crew Stateside are back — and they’re not holding anything back. Today, the California-based band dropped their brand new single “Like A Rosary”, the latest taste of their upcoming album Where You Found Me, due out June 6, 2025 via Pure Noise Records.
On “Like A Rosary”, frontman Anthony Lemus digs deep into one of his most painful memories — saying goodbye at an airport and realizing too late how much power that moment, and that person, held over him. “I couldn’t find the right words to say,” he shares. “All while looking back and realising how much power this person really had over my life and emotions in a way I couldn’t understand.”
The track is an emotional gut-punch wrapped in Stateside’s signature brand of urgent, melodic aggression. It follows the release of “Stay Sweet” — an earlier single featuring pop-punk heavyweights Knuckle Puck — and both songs hint at a record full of unflinching vulnerability and cathartic energy.
Stateside have spent the last three years relentlessly touring, and Where You Found Me captures that journey in full. The record explores everything from sacrifice and emotional burnout to the many shades of loss — themes familiar to anyone who’s chased a dream while trying to hold the rest of their life together.
Track titles like “The End’s Not Near It’s Here” and “California Calls You Home” (featuring Vamachara) paint a picture of a band reflecting on their past while still sprinting toward whatever’s next.
Stateside will hit the road this June as main support for One Step Closer, with a string of U.S. tour dates that kicks off June 5 in Austin, Texas and wraps up June 21 in Greensboro, North Carolina. Fans can expect a high-energy set packed with new material and the raw honesty Stateside are quickly becoming known for.
With Where You Found Me, Stateside are ready to make a statement — one that’s as emotional as it is loud. If “Like A Rosary” is any indication, they’re about to leave a serious mark on 2025.
