3rd album and proper Dirtnap debut from Houston, TX upstarts Something Fierce.
If
There Are No Answers perfected the Marked Men-meets-The-Buzzcocks brand
of snappy poppy punk that the band had been working on since their
inception in 2005, Don't Be So Cruel finds 'em rapidly expanding
outwards from that sound. While undeniably influenced by various strands
of 70s punk, this record is slightly more subtle and sophisticated than
mere 77-revivalists would have it. Slightly nuanced, almost understated
at times, vapid party-punk this is most definitely not. Thoughtful,
well written, well played songs that strike a perfect balance between
fun and smart. Kinda reminds us of when the original UK bands were just
starting to branch out from the punk template, but before the head-on
dive into post-punk artiness. More '79 than '77, if you know what we
mean.
