Washington DC’s Shark Week’s forthcoming AA-side 7″ is being released by Analog Edition Records on July 30th. Hearkening back to the glory days of rock ‘n roll, the band distill the raw energy of punk and infuse it with a hip-shaking garage pop sound.

Listen / click through to download it … Continue reading MM Shorts 406: Kings Of Lowertown
We’re liking the sound of this limited split 7″ (and digital) release by Carton and Alpha Cop via Negative Fun Records (out July 16th, order from their Bandcamp page here). We previously posted about Carton’s excellent Sunburst EP a couple of months ago, and their contribution to the split, Fingertips, is a slice of thrillingly ramshackle, wonderfully loud and bruising noise-pop that, if nothing else, will utterly terrify the … Continue reading Carton / Alpha Cop Split 7″
