The Penske File release new album ‘Reprieve’, featuring soaring punk anthem ‘Almost Young’

Hamilton punk-rock stalwarts The Penske File return with Reprieve, a fired-up and emotionally resonant album that wrestles with aging, change, and holding tight to the spark of youth. Recorded live-off-the-floor at Halo Studios, the record captures the trio’s unmistakable live energy and the deep creative bond they’ve honed over a decade of friendship.

At the heart of Reprieve is ‘Almost Young’, a powerful, bittersweet anthem written as frontman Travis Miles contemplated fatherhood. Built on a killer riff by Chuck Coles and produced with restraint by longtime collaborator Adam Michael, the song soars with harmony-laced urgency and real emotional bite.
