Has anyone figured out how, grammatically speaking, to combine pop and post-punk? Is it pop post-punk? Post-pop punk sounds like something else entirely. Post-punk pop? Anyway, Oakland group neutrals nails the sound on their new Bus Stop Nights E.P., released by indie London label Static Shock Records. Hop around the living room to the punchy bass, beaming guitars, and handclaps—or, if you’re around Sacramento, get tickets to see them play at Phono Select Records on Saturday, April 16 with fellow Bay Area acts Kids on a Crime Spree, Artsick, and Lunchbox.
