The Menzingers are an American punk rock band hailing from Scranton, Pennsylvania, that have earned a devoted following for their earnest storytelling and heart-on-sleeve lyricism. Formed in 2006, the band consists of co-lead vocalists and guitarists Greg Barnett and Tom May, bassist Eric Keen, and drummer Joe Godino. Their sound melds the raw energy of punk with the melodic sensibilities of rock, underscored by reflective and introspective lyrics that often grapple with the trials of adulthood, nostalgia, and personal growth.

Rising through the ranks of the punk scene with a series of acclaimed releases, The Menzingers hit a landmark with their 2012 album "On the Impossible Past," which is widely regarded as a genre classic. Successive albums, including "Rented World" and the reflective "After The Party," have continued to resonate with fans and critics alike. With recent offerings such as "Hello Exile" (2019) and "From Exile" (2020), a reimagined acoustic version of the former recorded during the band's separation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as standalone singles like "Toy Soldier" and "The Freaks," The Menzingers continue to cement their reputation as poignant storytellers capable of capturing the essence of contemporary life within their passionate and anthemic songs.
