Teenage Bottlerocket

Total (Red Scare)

Good first line in the bio: “Laramie, Wyoming has never exactly been a hotbed for, well, anything.” So I read on… Ah, one of the singers used to front Lillingtons, which explains the Ramones fixation, like Screeching Weasel, Riverdales, all that stuff like classic Lookout! and Ben Weasel’s label, Panic Button, who released a Lillingtons record, I think. No posing, just punkpop, like the mid-’90s stuff that I liked, before it went emo. Get these guys on the mp3 CD asap, and remind people punkpop isn’t just Warped Tour “who are these knock-offs?”
