I think we have found the perfect format format for Andy Jordan (The Cuts, Time Flys, Andy Human) and Ray Seraphin’s (Nobunny, Epic Sessions, The Impediments) spacey glam-punk material of recent vintage. Under Neon is a beautifully concise and balanced record. 4-songs with a huge sound and vision that sprawl out across a 12″ offering equal shares of Andy’s awestruck John Hughes sugar and the darkened, melodramatic undercurrent of selected class-A, punk gloss carved into marble with guitars and keys. It leaves you with aural phantoms ringing of Roxy Music, some Grauzone and a smattering of high-class power-pop bell-ringers. Following their S.S. 7″ debut, the similarly big, clean, spacey and self-produced fingerprint of Under Neon is something we’re sure those in the know will appreciate.

This record was lovingly mastered by Jason Ward at Chicago Mastering Service, and it comes in a beautiful reverse-jacket with inner-sleeve and yes, includes a download code with purchase of the vinyl.

BLUAAAAHH!  Hot wax from diggity-dogs A GIANT DOG is unleashed today!  Not only is this platter a great chunk of meaty punk sizzlers, but man, it’s flat out head-scratchingly overdue for these vets (get it!  VETS!!!! Do-oi-oiii…).  Female pipes yowlin’ on top o’ dissonant hooks knee deep in country-fried, blues-tinged LA punk musicality a-la THE EYES and FLESH EATERS in ye olde songwriting department is on point. I guess the inevitable comparison here is to X, but swap Billy Zoom’s pretty production with the drunken scuzzy sheen enlisted to do the master’s bidding!  ATTACK THE DORKS! Oh, and Sabrina Ellis delivers ten-fold as front woman. Great pipes serving her rendition of a less-throaty Exene but with way more range and great, creeping, soulful yowl.  What a bitch (Get it!!! A FEMALE DOG!!! Ooofffff!!!!). It all wickedly compliments the lyrical content of Cashen/Ellis’ tunes/blasted punk rocking underneath. This 15-track long player SMOKES!  Overloaded like the mothafuckin dog kennel!  YOOoowww!!!!!  LP includes download, and record includes the music!
