Nihilistic Easyrider Release Getaway

As the front person for Narrow Head, Jacob Duarte has to work as a team, but for Nihilistic Easyrider, his solo project, he gets to take all those ideas spinning in his head and do with them whatever he pleases…and we reap the rewards. It’s interesting that this announcement comes the same day as a new Superchunk tune, as you can certainly hear the pop rock enthusiasm in both tunes; it’s an earnestness to just let yourself be freed by hooks and noise. Duarte does a great job, too, toning it down a bit to bring in a melodic nugget in the vocals, calm and sweet, which offers a touch of juxtaposition. The new collection of tunes under the title Deluxe Edition will be out on July 25th via Run For Cover.
