Royal Pains- Get Punched 7" *BLUE VINYL*

Earthmen and Strangers: features Ryan Rousseau from The Reatards, The Wongs, Destruction Unit, Tokyo Electron and probably about a million other amazing bands. Based in Phoenix, AZ, somehow everything they’ve done reminds me of driving down a two lane highway in the middle of the desert; desolate and creepy post-punk at it’s finest. Far Corners: I first met Justin and Tara in a dive bar in Las Cruces, NM after they somewhat randomly moved here from Boston via Memphis. For a while they played local shows with a new bassist under their old bands moniker,Turpentine Brothers, but eventually decided to change their name. Far Corners is lo-fi, blow-out post punk that gets my blood pumping.  (Dirt Cult Records)
