SF post-punk trio Rip Room released their debut full-length album Alight and Resound on Seattle indie label Spartan Records. It’s all here: funky buzzy basslines, angular guitars, vox that give no fucks, and nary a song over three-and-a-half minutes. The perfect thing for fans of Fugazi, Minutemen, Devo, and the Raincoats. (For more on their influences, check out this great Spotify playlist they put together.)
