“Quarantine” is up-tempo, unapologetic and vivacious. It is very relevant in the times that we are living in today, and fans and listeners are bound to find it relatable. Mark Hoppus sings it with a great deal of attitude and angst, and it works.
The song is comprised of soaring drums and impressive guitars, coupled by a music video that features raw footage of the group shot on iPhones.
Mark Hoppus from the band stated that “Quarantine” is about the “sadness, confusion, anger and frustration” that the world is experiencing right now. “I hope that everybody is safe and that we can get through this very soon. Can’t wait to see you all on the other side,” he remarked.
Travis Barker shared that the tune was inspired by the quarantine itself, as well as the “crappy punk rock music we have loved to play since day one.” Particularly impressive about the drums is that they were done in one take and this song even features Barker on background vocals.
