It features members of Rise Against! and Riverboat Gamblers, and they’re somewhere between punk and psychobilly, genre-wise.
Most of their songs clock in under three minutes, and are fast-paced without running into one another.
Their lyrics are super fun, and verging on cheeky and occasionally NSFW - see Fist Fight at Ponchos for a prime example.
If you’re looking to get hooked within two minutes and 27 seconds, have a burl at My Name in Your Mouth.
Other applause-worthy tracks include opener I’m Getting Out, and Venus Retreat.
This stands proudly alongside some of the top punk-rock-whatever releases of 2016.
