MIDNITE BRAIN

 



They aren't really fooling anyone by starting off with the blatant DEATH SIDE lift, you know exactly what they are going for and you get exactly what you expect. Fast, raw US hardcore punk with a shameless ear turned towards the classics. This band was a bit of a flash, but revisiting the material is a nice reminder of how many good ass bands were kicking around SF/Oakland in the early '10s. I'm still convinced that no era is definitively better or worse than any other, which makes it a lot easier to reach back into my (midnite) brain (or nine year old posts) to pull out sweaty memories....see what I did there?
