@Cambalachero: whoops! I'll try some new hooks.

ALT2: ... that the Linda Lindas wrote No Obligation, their second album, during breaks from school? Source: altpress, spin
ALT3: ... that the Linda Lindas will tour alongside Green Day, the Smashing Pumpkins, and Rancid before the release of No Obligation in October? Source: altpress, spin
