Every once in awhile I love to search the deep dark catacombs of Spotify to find unheralded bands super far off the beaten path. Basically the artists like me (shoutout Matthew., Related To Strangers, and Kindergarten Cartel) who outside of their supportive families haven’t quite cracked the big time just yet.
So today I fired up The Jump Cuts’ debut album What A Fun Way To Kill Some Time which, along with being an incredible album title for a band just starting out, has a whopping 2,168 monthly listeners on Spotify. The Jump Cuts are a nostalgic throwback to the mid-2000’s garage rock revival movement and do their best Is This It? impression during their super sharp and tight 25 minute debut. It’s a fun little jaunt of downstroked guitar riffs and fuzzy production, a style that will never go out of style. Long live garage rock and roll.
Standout Songs: “Valentine”, “Split”, “Fangs”
