20/20 is the third studio album by American pop-punk band Knuckle Puck. It was released on September 18, 2020 through Rise Records.

Knuckle Puck released their second studio album Shapeshifter in October 2017.[1] It was promoted with a headlining tour of the United States and the United Kingdom, appearances at the Slam Dunk Festival in the UK and the Warped Tour in the US, and a supporting slot for Good Charlotte in the US through to late 2018.[2] In 2019, the band made sporadic performances, including a co-headlining tour of the US with Citizen in May and June,[3] and a performance at the Four Chord Music Festival later in the year.[4]

Release

Knuckle Puck embarked on a US tour in early 2020, marking their first tour since mid-2019,[5] but was halted after a few weeks because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[6] On February 21, 2020, "Tune You Out" was made available for streaming, alongside a lyric video.[7] This was followed by "RSVP" on April 21, 2020; 20/20 was announced for release later in the year.[8] They were announced to appear at Slam Dunk Festival in mid-2020,[9] but did not feature on the line-up when it was rescheduled as a result of COVID-19.[10] A music video was released for "Breathe" on June 18, 2020. Coinciding with this, 20/20 was given a release date in three months' time.[6] Following this, a lyric video was posted online for "What Took You So Long?" at the end of July 2020.[11] They were announce to support New Found Glory and Simple Plan on their co-headlining tour in mid-2020,[12] until it was also postponed till late 2021 due to COVID-19,[13] though they eventually dropped off before it was underway.
