Puddy Up Or Shut Up: Punk Rockers Comeback Track Gives The People What They “Want”

Fri Jan 12, 2024

Feeling worn down? Run over by life? Like you’re constantly at the mercy of malevolent forces beyond your control?

If you’ve survived the last few years, the answer is probably “yes.” But sweet vindication is here in the form of Puddy, the Canadian indie quartet that’s back after a prolonged absence with its triumphant revenge fantasy of a track, “What Do You Want?” Check it out on YouTube here:

An eminently singable burst of punked-up fury, the song finds the band hurling invective at a “parasite” whose “meal ticket” has just been canceled after years of abused privileges. And from the way singer/guitarist Paolo Rizzo snarls out the chorus lyric, you can tell this is a man who’s well and truly over it.
