In a fusion of power pop greatness, punk energy and grooving riffs,
Rex Tycoon’s debut full-length No Limit 2 Luv (Smartpunk Records) shows off what makes the band so special. Bursting to life with “Rock ‘N Roll Star,” No Limit 2 Luv kicks off feeling stadium huge while lyrically professing a humble reality, the sound manifesting the kind of rock ‘n’ roll stardom this album deserves. Over the course of ten songs Rex Tycoon conjures the energy of beer-soaked basement parties as well as meandering, soul searching drives. It’s eclectic but consistent, showing the band’s flexibility and unique stylistic foundation. Guitarist and vocalist Austin Reesman’s knack for storytelling reaches its pinnacle with the album closer “Jesus Drives,” a bluesy, straight ahead rocker that relays the reality and drudgery of the working class people doing their best to survive under untenable circumstances. For Fans Of: Lou Reed, Hüsker Dü, The Modern Lovers, John Prine, Pavement
https://silvercarcrash.bandcamp.com/musicSilver Car Crash is a noisy, guitar-driven post-punk band formed in the verdant hills of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With members active in the city’s DIY circuit for nearly a decade, they embody the chaos and catharsis that has long fueled the Steel City’s underground. Blending influences that span garage rock, hardcore, country, avant-garde, and no wave, the band brews a delicious stew of loud basement rock and roll and raw, potent poetry– casting sonic spells upon those tuned in. For those paying attention, Silver Car Crash has been a cornerstone of Pittsburgh’s independent music renaissance.
