Record Review from Beercan Records:
Patrol Wagon - EP - The first couple songs on this nugget sound to me like a sped-upped Embrace. And it’s actually a little known fact that Embrace was Ian MacKaye’s very finest project (unless you’re more of a Egghunt fan) so "Hooray!" for Patrol Wagon. But then things take a turn for the delightfully unexpected and Patrol Wagon starts to sound like the best hardcore band that you’ve heard in ten, maybe twenty, years depending on your date of birth. But, but a hardcore band that can lock onto a groove and ride that mother fucker directly to that point inbetween your eyeballs that you couldn’t see if you tried for hours on end.
And then it’s over. And you want more.
However, minus 10 points for the Cuban Revolutionary hat that the singer is wearing in one of the pictures on their myspace page. But this ain’t the Vice Magazine Do’s & Dont’s so ignore my bullshit and go pick this up. (Let’s Pretend Records)
