NASA / Boogie Chillin Too Heavy / Does Are Records
A garage, a 4-track recorder, lots of Jack Daniels, and a sheet of acid seem to be the tools involved in making this very lo-fi, grunge EP. Really sounds like your neighbors recording their 2nd ever rehearsal for their high school’s Battle of the Bands contest. At times there are slight references to 60’s era noise pop but the continued unstructured ranting forces you to recant that comparison out of respect for the 60’s.

16:04 Why is this song over 16 minutes long? Some (very) slight reflections of George Thorogood.
6:32 First few seconds have an interesting drum pattern which gives (false) hope that this might actually be a pretty good song.
6:13 Didn’t think the EP could get noisier and grungier? Think again.
1:55* This is a song that would be great to see live. Nice hard punk sound and (thankfully) less than 2 minutes long.
9:54 The big finale. I would expect this song to be concluded with the destruction of the bands instruments. Hopefully they would not bother to fix said instruments nor buy new ones.
