Good Grief - Punk pop from members of 255s, Croc God

Postby Discount_horse » Wed Jun 06, 2012 7:15 pm

As far as I know, this went up today but it's great. I've been dying to hear more from these guys since I saw them with Spraynard and ONSIND last month. Good Grief features ex-255s, Hillary and the Democrats and current Crocodile God. They sound like Superchunk etc. 90s indie-punk with the occasional nod to 70s power pop. Like I say, I'm very into this. CHECK IT OUT!

Gigsnotshows.

Hope Manchester happens, will probably be in town that day. Get the Falls up for it as well and everyone's laughing.
