Negative World

Yes. Please ignore the misleading band name because this album seriously rocks. This is the debut album for the three-piece Austin band, comprised of former/current members of Total Abuse, Serious Traces, Best Fwends and Uppers, and is being released on (Matador co-founder) Gerard Cosloy's recently resurrected 12XU imprint which is also pretty exciting. Anyways, if you want loud, angsty, in your face, yummy punk tracks then this album is for you. Personal favorites include: their cover of Suicide Commando's "Burn It Down", the title track, "Negative World", and the opening track, "Slow News Day."
