You can’t ever go wrong with a new EP by Drew Owen’s Sick Thoughts who have been a crucial joint in the american garage punk backbone for well over a decade now! Accordingly their new EP is yet another souvereign and self-assured blast of top-notch garage punk songwriting and effortless high-energy performances with quite a bit of variety as exemplified by the equally Buzzcocks-informed and new-wave-ish vibes of the title track, the hardcore attack of Just Die Fast, a sleazy hard-rockin’ acid rock flourish in The Doom, the linking element of it all being a super catchy power pop-ish ’77 vibe running all the way through these tunes.
