I’m fucking freaking out

It’s in my eyes

I’m feeling something strong

I realize

I did something wrong

I see cop lights

A black cat crossed my path

It’s got no eyes

Bad vibes

Bad vibes

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

It’s in my eyes (bad vibes)

I feel something strong (bad vibes)

I realize (bad vibes)

I feel something strong (bad vibes)

I got bad vibes (bad vibes)

He’s a psychopath

He’s telling lies

Bloodstains on his hands

I can’t sympathize

I know there’s something wrong

I got bad vibes

I’m feeling the feeling strong

Bad vibes

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I’m feeling the feelings strong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

(Bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I’m feeling the feelings strong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

(Bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

Have another beer

And live your life

Your head get your head checked

And realize

Kicked out of the house

For wicked lies

Your life’s totally fucked

You’ve got bad vibes

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I’m feeling the feelings strong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

(bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

I know there’s something wrong (bad vibes)

I’ve got bad vibes (bad vibes)

An ode to punk legends Black Flag, Gob Patrol’s latest single describes that feeling you get when you’re in the presence of someone who terrifies or confuses you, giving you a bad vibe. Hard bass and buzz-sawing guitar riffs accent the crashing cymbals and minimal beats, with repetitive lyrics telling a story of fear and uneasiness.

Gob Patrol are heavily inspired by the legendary 80’s US punk scene highlighted by acts such as Black Flag, GBH, Minor Threat and The Germs. They are angsty, rebellious, chaotic and 100% pure old school punk rock – just how we love it.

The idea of Gob Patrol started in 2018 with guitarist Jay meeting the singer Slam in Las Vegas over a discussion of punk rock bands. They soon found bass player Gogo and drummer Cody.

The concept was to develop music based on the influence and sound of their favorite 80s punk bands, and to keep that sound alive in a growing scene. Writing guitar-driven songs inspired by bands such as Black Flag, GBH, and The Germs, Gob Patrol stay true to the genre.

 After recording their first demo, Gob Patrol hit the road playing shows to large crowds in California, Utah, Arizona, and raging in the Vegas scene. In December 2020, the band released their latest EP Spit.
