Criticals - Clever Girl / Belmon - 7-INCH SINGLE [7 inch Vinyl Disc]

Nashville rock duo The Criticals (Parker Forbes and Cole Shugart) released their debut EP for Fantasy Records, titled Front Door Confrontations, in 2023. Friends for more than a decade, having first met as children at music camp, Forbes and Shugart logged time together in Nashville's wild DIY rock scene. The two musicians quite simply feed off one another's energy and not only has it made for a close friendship, but an incomparable musical partnership that blends tuneful classicism and indie rock thrash into a seductive, unforgettable mix. Now, following a pair of highly regarded EPs (2019's Mimosa Hygiene and the following year's Sour Grapes), not to mention a steady diet of raucous live shows, the band's most accomplished work yet, is Front Door Confrontations.7Inch single. Album Tracks 1. All the Way 2. Belmont 3. Call the Cliché 4. Clever Girl 5. Burn with Me 6. Front Door Confrontations

San Francisco's Caveman drags their knuckles right out of the bay and into the blasty hardcore punk zeitgeist with five stomping dirges to whet your Neanderthalic appetite. After two sold out runs of this material on cassette, this first EP is now available here as a limited pressing on vinyl. Since this recording, the band has taken on SPY singer Peter Pawlak on bass for their live show and future releases. This is pissed, fist pumping hardcore, to take our your anger after a long day with all the horrible stuff going on the world. FFO GULCH, SPY, and SUNAMI but with their own slant. Album Tracks 1. 1. Opinions 2. 2. No Excuse 3. 3. Five Eyed Machine 4. 4. Militants 5. 5. Keep Quiet
