Whatever Brains

VINYL FORMAT. Comes with a digital download card that includes full album plus all four of the band's previous EPs! Without a doubt the most sonically adventurous release thus far on Sorry State, North Carolina's Whatever Brains use their previous four 7"s as a launching pad into completely uncharted musical waters. While the foundation is still spazzy, weird garage punk, this time around Whatever Brains incorporate electronic beats, tons of synth, some quieter parts, and a few truly epic compositions. This album is so expansive that it probably has something for everyone, but fans of Total Control, early Pavement, prime-era Fall, and catchy garage punk in the Marked Men mold will probably be the ones in the front row banging their fists along. The packaging on this one is also particularly ambitious, including a full-color gatefold jacket, obi strip, 14-page newsprint booklet.
