On their freakin’ brilliant debut EP, this San Diego group dabbles in a quite oldschool sounding approach of gruff and dark post punk with a slight hint of Oi! that doesn’t try anything new but does everything right and is sure gonna please discerning genre afficinados and admirers of groups like Impotentie, Pyrex, Rank/Xerox and Institute, while standing out among the pack thanks to a pronounced melodic sensibility adding frequent flashes of color to that well-trodden genre formula, reminding me a little of early Iceage or of more recent works by the likes of Corker and NRG.
