Sounds Like
Leftover Crack, Degenerics, we're "a little bit country, a little bit rock n roll, n a lil bit Soul II Soul"* 80's Pop, 60's Mod, 90's Crust, some new songs sound like 80's thrash & much, but not too much...more!!! *(quote is O.D.B. from the Mariah Carey "Fantasy (remix)" where p.diddy was just starting to ruin songs by lethargically grunting "uh" and constantly announcing that it is indeed "the remix"...)
O.K., so we're not actually trying to take your under-age children across state-lines to live the decadent Star Fucking Hipster lifestyle.
We are a new band featuring members of mostly current, with a couple of non-active, but not broken-up bands like Choking Victim, The Degenerics, Leftover Crack, the Slackers, Nanuchka and Casa de Chihuahua with honorary members from bands like the Bouncing Souls, World/Inferno Friendship Society and the Hold Steady (all of whom play on the two tracks we have decided to debut on this page). Anyhow, we have what I believe is a talented group of musicians here and we are making an effort to try and mix shit up with our styles of playing and song-writing while keeping the ideas of leftist-politics and ethics of true punk alive (we understand that the definition of "punk" has broadened and in our opinion has been obscenely perverted for years to meet capitalistic ends), but we are not here to exclude people, we don't care what you do, own, believe in, look like, where you come from or any of that superficial shit. We plan on playing all-ages shows with the hope of maintaining the interest of "slightly older" folks such as our-selves. What we do or "believe" in does not need to be conformed to by you. We are an ANTI-RACIST, ANTI-SEXIST, ANTI-HOMOPHOBIC & ANTI-FASCIST organization. We are pro-choice, but anti-breeding, we are against any wars that are fought for profit or for the power to enslave people or to destroy the cultures of another race, religious or ethnic group. We are against nations and their ill-gotten arbitrary borders. We are against the invasion and colonialism perpetrated by crass, brutish governments such our own. We believe only in fighting to defend your people, culture and resources from being raped by international bullies looking to turn a profit at the expense of innocent people and this very planet that gives us life.
WE BELIEVE IN ROCKING YOU!!!
We hope that you rock back.

Until We're Dead was a hard act to follow, but hey, you folks have done just that. Loving your new full length, and dare I say better than yer first. Luxembourg's Petrograd sprung to mind on listening to some tracks, and great to see CF folks Dick and Jasper lending their talents to the fray. Awesome art from Fly too.
