Albany-raised pop-punk band State Champs have released a new music video for their latest single, “Common Sense,” via Pure Noise Records. It’s a punchy, high-energy track that’s packed with the band’s signature catchy hooks and dynamic guitars, while showcasing a heavier side to their evolving sound.
The band shared their sentiments on the new track below:
“We couldn’t wait to share the video for ‘Common Sense.’ This song is deeply personal to us. When we were picking a director, we knew that Lupe could bring the emotions of the song to life in a beautiful way. Go check it out!”
This is the first song the band has put out since their self-titled record came out in November 2024. The album marked a new chapter for the band, showcasing their evolution while staying true to their roots. It featured hit singles including “Light Blue,” “Too Late To Say,” and “Silver Cloud.” The album received praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, AltPress, Rock Sound, and New Noise Magazine, admiring its blend of nostalgic Warped Tour-era energy and modern pop punk sounds. It cemented them as torchbearers on the scene and is one of the band’s most celebrated albums to date.
This month, the band will be on tour with A Day to Remember and Yellowcard for select dates. Later this year, they will do a small run of shows in Michigan, Ohio, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Maryland, and Virginia at a few intimate venues with friends Stateside and Super Sometimes. They will also be performing at several music festivals, including Vans Warped Tour Orlando on November 15th and 16th and Aftershock Festival on October 2nd. They will also be back on the Emo’s Not Dead Cruise in January 2026.
