DAY CREEPER - central states LP

Day Creeper is an antidote. They’re X-ray vision through the bullshit. Here on their second LP, Central States, Aaron Troyer and gang acutely deliver their smartest set of unhinged, basement-born punk rock yet. It probably helps that this is their initial barrage as a four-piece, with a second guitar that sends them to complete power-mode, but something still feels more right than ever before. There’s effortlessness abound here: the melodies, the infectious sarcasm, the whole damn thing is like they were born to make this record.

“A new LP ripe with compelling hooks and robust songs, richly drenched with pure Midwest pop.” -Victim Of Time

"The ten burns on this record blister forth with such resolute chord burstin’ dark snot zeal, it’s like falling in love all over again" -Fuckin’ Record Reviews

"This quartet, here on their 2nd lp (they’ve got a few singles, too) come at it straight ahead with a minimum of bullshit" -Dagger Zine
