Over the twenty-five years that have passed since the release of their groundbreaking album Something To Write Home About, the four main members of The Get Up Kids, Rob Pope, Ryan Pope, Matt Pryor, and Jim Suptic, have taken on solo endeavors, side projects, and positions in well-known bands. They have also raised children, found partners, and launched enterprises. Even still, if you see them on the streets of Lawrence, Kansas, these days, you'll discover that each of them has managed to hold onto the exuberant, unflinching genuineness that fans witnessed firsthand at basement performances prior to the band's sophomore triumph, maybe even behind a beard.
Produced by Peter Katis (Kurt Vile, The National), the Get Up Kids' most recent full-length album, Problems, was released via Polyvinyl Record Co. and debuted at number 10 on the Vinyl Albums chart of Billboard. The album also received career-high critical acclaim from SPIN, Billboard, Kerrang!, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, All Music, Newsday, Exclaim!, Punknews, and other publications. Problems is the follow-up to the highly acclaimed "return to form" EP Kicker, which received support and praise from Pitchfork, The FADER, Billboard, The AV Club, SPIN, Consequence, and Modern Drummer, among other outlets. Stereogum describes Problems as "a validation and revamp of Get Up Kids 2.0, honoring the indie-leaning sound of Guilt Show and There Are Rules with a stronger sense of confidence and melody.".
