Presumably named after a pulp fiction novel, these Loiners (gotta love demonyms) have a harmonious, albeit frustrated, undercurrent, not unlike Jawbreaker or Fugazi. Very apt they’re touring with Unfun. Six electrified-named tracks that appeal to the under-age-twenty-five me and five acoustic unnamed tracks that are theoretically Acoustic Motherfucker Stones-like, appealing to the over-age-thirty-five me.
