Celebration Summer / Wolf-Face DCxPC Live, Volume 42 split LP
Recorded live at The Fest, DCxPC Live, Volume 42 pairs CELEBRATION SUMMER from DC. with Florida’s WOLF-FACE for two distinct takes on melodic punk energy. CELEBRATION SUMMER lean into earnest, ’90s-style melodic punk showing their JAWBREAKER and TILTWHEEL influences. WOLF-FACE counters with a more playful set that mixes their Teen Wolf basketball-punk personas with solid, tuneful, orgcore-flavored “whoaaaaa” sing-alongs, including a cover of TV ON THE RADIO’s “Wolf Like Me” and a live version of “I Wanna Be a Homo(sapien)” with a hirsute wink toward SCREECHING WEASEL. The recording quality is rough, but it feels like an honest snapshot of two bands connecting with a crowd. Limited to 200 copies on this yellowish color that someone decided to call “summer moon.”
