Curfews Drops Psalms to Strip To EP

August 4, 2022 nathan.lankford One comment

Felt like yesterday got sort of hung up in a kind of mellowed vibe, which was perfect, matching all the tunes that I was enjoying. But, today, I wanted to kick myself in the ass a little bit, get some energy beneath me and kind of kick on into the day…thus, here I am covering the new Psalms to Strip To EP from Curfews..more specifically, the closing track “Trophy Case.” You can feel the heaviness of this tune almost instantly, with that crunchy riff driving right through your speakers. Melody is omnipresent here, though mostly in the way the vocals are done, getting a little emphatic punch when necessary; it’s just a straight ripper you’re going to rush to turn up real loud!

Ripper Rip a Rocker

November 12, 2015 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I feel like a good bit of pop music always needs to be juxtaposed to something a little more dangerous, a little more sinister. So, it’s a good thing the folks at Land Ski Records have been so busy lately, offering up this new blast of rock n’ roll from Ripper. Take the sound of the guitar, combine it with the angsty vocal delivery, then toss in a nice pounding beat from the drum section…add it all up and you’ve got something ready to build a riotous little pit in your favorite venue. The Minneapolis four-piece will be kicking out their new A.D. EP in early December via Land Ski and Lawn Chair Records.
