Neighborhood Brats

Claw Marks

Neighborhood Brats return with their second full length record, and lets just start by saying its a scorcher. The band plays a brand of punk that, had they existed in 1977, would have been right at home on Dangerhouse Records alongside The Bags and The Avengers. That said, "Claw Marks" might just be the first Neighborhood Brats records that truly captures and urgency and energy of the bands chaotic live show. The record finds the band at the top of their game in terms of songwriting, musicianship, and lyricism. So much so that lead singer Jenny Angelillo says that there are several songs on the album that could easily be her epitaph. "Claw Marks" is an upbeat but beaten down soundtrack to the dystopian nightmare we find ourselves living in. When the band sings "Its time to check out/Were being left out" it sounds like a mantra for our time, while the album closes with Jenny singing "Dance with me/Bones, blood, And teeth/Dance with me/Into the Void" over a reverb drenched guitar line provided by the bands other core member, George Rager, that sounds like it was lifted out of some post-apocalyptic western. Its all so fucking perfect.
