CrashMonkeys Unleash “New Young Generation” — A Defiant Anthem for 2025
Santa Cruz, CA — May 14th, 2025 — Rock rebels CrashMonkeys return in full force with the explosive new single “New Young Generation”, out now on all major streaming platforms. Marking the first release from their upcoming third album of the same name, this hard-hitting track is a rallying cry for anyone fed up with generational finger-pointing and tired narratives.
“This one came from a real place of frustration — I’d had enough of hearing what the next generation is and isn’t. So I wrote a song about who they are, and where they’re going.” says Stel Furet, founder and lead vocalist of CrashMonkeys.
Driven by raw guitars, punchy drums, and a no-apologies vocal delivery, “New Young Generation” channels the spirit of '90s rock rebellion with a 2025 attitude — gritty, loud, and unfiltered. The track confronts intergenerational blame with blistering energy, capturing the essence of a band that’s never been afraid to speak its mind.
“New Young Generation” features:
- Production by Stel Furet
- A DIY ethos that reflects the band’s roots in the Bay Area alt-rock scene
- A video dropping soon that’s as punchy as the track itself
- Early buzz on TikTok and Instagram Reels under #NewYoungGeneration
