"It’s pretty much a given that if you are reading this blog then you are aware of ambient slacker poster child Ricky Eat Acid. I think out of all the artists I’ve covered, I’ve given the most amount of time to Sam Ray’s music. Now that he is devoting much of his time to his band Teen Suicide (now a full band with his friend Eric Livingston) those numbers are only going to increase all the more. I wasn’t even planning on blogging this weekend but then Sam farted this thing out on Twitter last night, so here we are (plus it’s been in my iTunes for about a month now, so I pretty much know how I feel about it).
This is the first we’ve heard from Teen Suicide since their album Bad Vibes Forever. At only seven tracks long, this thing is only half the length of their debut. Right off the bat I can tell you that this is a much more focused, cohesive effort from the band. Also the songwriting is tighter, faster, and louder resulting in a release that is pretty much straight punk rock. I love the fidelity of these tracks. Strap on some headphones and you basically feel like the band is right there in your head bangin these tracks out. You can hear every buzz of the guitar strings, every crackle in Sam’s voice, and the snap of each drum hit. It’s just a super solid release that I hope you’ll enjoy as much as I do.
*Oh, word to the wise. You might have some explaining to do when people see that you ‘like’ Teen Suicide on Facebook. Just letting you know" (cactus-mouth.tumblr.com)
