The energetic single, "Upperclassmen," is a freewheeling anthem for the underdog that rides high upon bright jangle-pop verses, and charming vocal harmonies led by the commanding falsetto of singer / guitarist Collin Rausch.

Capturing Shy Boys' ever so gentle punk proclivities, "Upperclassmen" is charged with nimble guitars that evoke the early 80s spirit of South Bay SST bands like Minutemen and Descendents.

Meanwhile, Kansas City artist Diyana Shipp's beautifully detailed cover illustration of two leaping 'letter-jacket jocks' (who will undoubtedly "kick your ass") calls to mind the iconic pen and ink contrast work of Raymond Pettibon.

Saved by the bell, yet again, "Upperclassmen" gets in and out quicker than you can make it to homeroom.
