“When we went to make this record I just wanted to make a record that I would love to listen to driving around, and feeling like a kid again. That was the goal,” Benji Madden says.

They accomplish that time and again on the mature YOUTH AUTHORITY, from the old-school pop/punk opener “Life Changes” to the joyous sing-along refrain of “Reason To Stay,” featuring Simon Neil (Biffy Clyro), and the upbeat pop energy of “Keep Swingin” featuringadditional vocals from Kellin Quinn (Sleeping with Sirens) as well as “The Outfield” and “WAR,” the group’s heaviest song to date.For the new album, the group also collaborated with John Feldmann who produced the original GOOD CHARLOTTE albums.

 The multi-platinum-selling group’s first single, the retro “40 oz. Dream” is impacting radio charts starting this week. Watch the clip for “40 oz. Dream”which Rolling Stone hailed “colorful and nostalgic… [the] song looks back on the time when the band was on the come-up in L.A.’s punk scene.” Watch and share the group’s hilarious video for the song “Makeshift Love”.A video for “Life Changes” will be released in the coming weeks.
