Album Review: Us The Band - But Where Do They Go

StarStarStarHalf Star

"Their debut EP borrows from classic '70s music of bands like The Ramones and The Damned, if those bands were just two people."

This punk outfit, recently signed by the very reliable people at Rice Is Nice, cite Cloud Nothings and Thee Oh Sees as inspiration, however their debut EP borrows from classic '70s music of bands like The Ramones and The Damned, if those bands were just two people.

From a production point, everything is spot-on and arguably more 'older-sounding' than their contemporary influences. They've reportedly got the attention of the popular music press, including the likes of NME and Henry Rollins, and there is plenty of energy that sounds like it would translate into a great live show — here's hoping they go places in 2016.
