Go Back in Time with Crayon
Remember that one town that birthed Beat Happening? Well, that same town also had something heavier working simultaneously, though possibly not as prolific in the long run. Crayon kicked out these happy songs with this dangerous edge to them. Think about jamming to the Violent Femmes if they were fronted by one of your favorite gritty punk rock outfits. Sadly, the band disbanded in the early 90s, spawning the creation of Tullycraft (a delightful act in their own right), but you’ll be able to get your hands on some a pristine vinyl copy of the group’s Brick Factory, courtesy of the really rad people at HHBTM Records.
