The Menzingers
still from "The Freaks" video

The Menzingers share new song "The Freaks" and Halloween-themed video

The Menzingers have dropped a new single with a spooky video that arrives just in time for Halloween. It’s called “The Freaks,” and it’s an instantly likable song that’s on the band’s softer side. As for the video, a press release notes that “director Adam Peditto captures a freaks-only Halloween party, attended by devils and bumblebees, aliens and handmaids, vampires and wigged dogs.” Watch/listen below.

The song/video comes out just before The Menzingers play The Fest (and Pre-Fest) this week. After that, they’ll tour with Tiny Moving Parts and Daddy Issues (including NYC’s Brooklyn Steel on 11/23), and then play Every Time I Die’s Buffalo holiday show and their own Scranton holiday show.
