The Breeders. Jesus and Mary Chain. Billie Holiday. The Books. The Ramones. Good Luck. Jay Reatard. Iggy and the Stooges. Hop Along A mix of pop-punk, surf-rock and a little grunge are heard throughout the two track single released on March 14th through Pretty Penny Records. Coming out of San Francisco, the sound is refreshing because it doesn’t stick to the weird, noisy, pseudo-psychedelic garage-rock that the city’s music community has become known for in the last decade. Instead, Void Boys reaches back to a different part of the early 2000s, the more alternative rock side. Linear song structure and a dynamic that is easy to follow for the listener takes control of the album. Each part of each song allows enough time for foot tapping. Their songs are catchy and well structured, while not coming off as too jumpy. Baus Mike Morales Thomas Jackson Sierra Wendt -from Oakland -Baus employs taut basslines, funky drumming and menacing ear drum destroying noise guitar to create something that kind of sounds like if the A-Frames, Liquid Liquid and Gang of Four were thrown in a blender.
