As pretty much anything the Moncton, New Brunswick one-man-band TJ Cabot has done in recent years, this new EP after like a three-year break is yet another excellent burst of oldschool garage punk goodness, possibly the strongest thing they've done even and among the roughest sounding too once the melodic and absolutely brilliant opener Palm Stings is out of the way, when the remaining tunes take on a more primitive oldschool aesthetic that more than once recalls the proto- and KBD punk stylings of, say, Death, Pagans or Rocket From The Tombs.
Expectations are always through the roof with a new Electric Prawns 2 record but so far they've never disappointed and these two new tunes won't either, showing the group 100% in their element, City Streets being the kind of psych-infused garage punk smasher based around a strong and simple hook they've always excelled in and Be With You Tonight once again showcasing the group's supreme power pop instincts. After a half-year long break that almost feels like an eternity with this group following their incredibly prolific 2024-2025 streak, our favorite australian hallucinogenic hit factory still doesn't show any signs of wear.
