“The fallout’s now when’s that gonna click?”
We can’t pass up an opportunity to talk about new tunes for a great cause! We also can’t pass up an excuse to talk about new music from The Downhauls (Especially since we missed the window on their last release and that Irish guilt is a real thing)! So how could we refuse/turn down/ignore “Crosshairs” from The Downhauls which, if you purchase as part of the “Revolution is in the Air” Charity Merch Bundle delivers 20% of the proceeds to the ACLU?!?! The answer is we couldn’t.
You want anthems? The Downhauls has got you! Need a bit of an edge in your modern Punk Pop? Again, The Downhauls has got you! Wondering what to add to your ultimate Spring playlist? Downhauls. Has. Got. You.
The rawness of The Runaways with the refined decadence of Rancid for some modern Power Punk, the latest from The Downhauls is not only another slab of awesome from the MA-based outfit but also a riotous anthem for the oncoming revolution that calls out both those in power who repeatedly prove they’re worse than we all thought on the daily as well as people who sit idly by and are letting this happen. That message is brought to you with inspired fury from Chrissy V on the mic and guitars, LoWreck on drums and percussion, Ivahna Rock on bass, and Rochelle on lead guitar.
You can get “Crosshairs” as part of the “Revolution is in the Air” Charity Merch Bundle over on Bandcamp now until May 23rd when you head here with pre-orders set to ship out around June 20th which is just in time for the band’s appearance at Moon Base in Salem on June 21st with One Fall and 40 Reps that serves as both a record release party and a NAGLY benefit (That’s “North Shore Alliance of GLBTQ Youth” if ya didn’t already know).
