Philadelphia's HOP ALONG Release New Single NOT ABEL Now AvailableFebruary 20, 2018Philadelphia's Hop Along will release their third studio album Bark Your Head Off, Dog on April 6 on Saddle Creek. Along with CD, cassette, and black vinyl, there is also a tri-color striped vinyl that is limited to 750 copies and sold exclusively on the Saddle Creek Store. On album opener and lead single “How Simple,” Quinlan wrangles with what it's like to learn about yourself—which can get ugly. The theme carries through to new album track, “Not Abel,” where Quinlan turns the focus outward and sings about the ways other people can be disappointing, relative strangers and biblical figures. “Karl Ove Knausgaard wrote a great book called, 'A Time for Everything.' I'd say it inspired a lot of little moments, in this song especially,” shares Quinlan. “At one point he writes about Cain and Abel, but approaches it with a far more intimate, even mundane lens, completely unlike the Bible, which is pretty bare of any personal description. As you spend a few days with them, Cain becomes increasingly sympathetic. It's a funny thing trying to examine beliefs. Sympathy and understanding complicate everything too much I suppose.”
