Knockout Kid's unique brand of aggressive, metal-tinged pop punk has solidified them as a frontrunner of the scene, and they've toured the U.S. and Canada extensively since their inception. Having been compared to Four Year Strong, A Day To Remember, and The Wonder Years, KNOCKOUT KID released their label debut 12 song album, “MANIC,” in stores and digitally via Bullet Tooth on 2/26/16. The album also features guest vocals from Kid Liberty singer, and Bullet Tooth alumni, Trey Sexton, on the track “Jurassic Park After Dark," the first single off the record. The band also released the music video for "Empire Business" and "MANIC" vinyl LPs in late 2016.
Since its release, "MANIC" has garnered critical acclaim. New Noise Magazine called it the "most important record of 2016" because of its forward-thinking lyrical content. Chicago's own Reckless Record's hails "MANIC" as a "songwriting masterpiece for instrumentation & lyricism." The record also earned the band a personal invitation to play Belgium's Groezrock Festival in April of 2016, one of Europe's top ten rock festivals.
Speaking on the signing, the band said, “Joining the Bullet Tooth family is a dream come true for KNOCKOUT KID. Having grown up on bands from Josh and Bullet Tooth, it’s only right that they release our most ambitious album to date. The future has never been brighter.”
Knockout Kid released their followup to "MANIC", "HERO INSOMNIAC" in July of 2020.
