Candy Pop is the fourth EP by American rock band Awolnation. It was released on November 10, 2023.
Background
In late 2022, Awolnation released two new singles: "Freaking Me Out" and "We Are All Insane". On September 22, 2023, they released the single "Candy Pop" and announced the EP of the same name that day. It is the band's first EP in over a decade.
Musically, the EP returns to a more electronic sound reminiscent of the band's early work. Frontman Aaron Bruno describes the title track as "a story about escaping from never-ending technological advancements and constant connectivity and scrutiny… The adventure of a lifetime can come from ‘tuning out." Subsequently, the intention with “Candy Pop” was to create a song that epitomizes the seductive nature of pop music and pop culture, while pointing out the absurdity of it all at once.[1][2]
