"you say you got nothing to lose..."
Upon first listen, stepping into the pounding punk / garage rock fray of "squabble" by Chicago's The Lipschitz, I flashed on other duo's like Los Angeles' Surf Curse (early days) or trios like Beach Goons or even bands with several members like Osees. The shared nucleic acid being a punchy sort of surf punk or non surf punk on high gleefully raucous and or rabid and with the inclusion (often) of tom tom beats, gotta have tom tom beats. It is a sound that you will know when you hear it and will engender flailing moshing arms and eye pokes for the young (and sometimes young at heart). I am digging The Lipshcitz' snarky attitude, dynamic drumming, boy girl vox and Daniel Brady's vocal aesthetic that reminds me a bit (old reference ahead) of Stan Ridgway.
"squabble" song and video is released ahead of The Lipschitz' full length "Chevron" dropping July31st (2021) via Company Businesses Inc. The Lipschitz is comprised of Rachael Brianna (vocals/drums) and Daniel Brady (vocals/guitar).
