Completely unexpected and fully welcomed, this record comes at us at a time when we need the Neighborhood Brats more than anything. It looked as if they had called it quits seemingly at their peak not long after the release of their 2014 album Recovery, but they’re back with this three-song blaster that shows us they aren’t quite done yet. The record shows an uncanny ability to combine the scrappy, free for all sound of their earliest recordings with the laser-focused song writing on Recovery. There is a something special when Jenny and George get together to make music that you just don’t hear every day. With tours booked on the heels of this record, let’s hope there is a new LP in the works. If the last few years have proven anything, it’s that the world is a better place with Neighborhood Brats in it. Don’t sleep on this record. –Ty Stranglehold (Taken By Surprise)
