Today Brisbane pop-rock mainstays Bugs are thrilled to release their newest offering, 'Seriously', the fourth and final single off their long-awaited second album, 'Self Help'. The track premiered last night on triple j Good Nights, and comes alongside news that the boys will embark on their own five-city national tour in November, on the back of supporting Australian rock legends Grinspoon throughout October.
 
Having made a name for themselves with hook-laden tracks that double as candid explorations of one's inner emotional dialogue, Bugs are thrilled to lower the stakes with 'Seriously'.

"'Seriously' is a song about those times you screw up and end up feeling like a bit of a goofball. It's easy to be self-deprecating when you make a mistake, but it's often more helpful to shrug it off and remind yourself that these things happen to everyone," reflects the band's frontman Connor Brooker. 
 
"It's liberating and fun, just like the song. I want it to be a friendly reminder that life isn't flawless, and how it's important to find the comedic value in defeat."

'Seriously' was recorded, mixed, and produced by Brock Weston at Brisbane's Bedlam Records, and mastered by Tyson Ruth at Studio Truth.
