Call Me Lightning

A collection of 11 highly danceable punk tracks, this is a record designed to groove to while still maintaining punk credibility. The moments of sloppy musicianship are juxtaposed by extremely tight breakdowns, proving that the band is not playing fancily for the sake of sounding impressive; rather, they save their best moments for when they know it’s time to pull out all the stops. Tracks like "Pizza Party” end with such tambourine-shaking intensity that it’s hard not to want to get up and shake along, while the more subtle "Golden Radical (Young Professional)” is an exercise in musical restraint from a group of three individuals who would clearly prefer to be cranked up to 11 all the time.
