Fugitive Bubble What Will Happen If We Stop? LP
I had never heard of them before today, but it’s hard for me to consider a band falling too short after having the superb name of FUGITIVE BUBBLE. They are a three-piece from Olympia, WA that plays a mathy and urgent punk cutting close to the NEO BOYS/AVENGERS meets MINUTEMEN bone. There is more beyond the typical within What Will Happen If We Stop?, as well as moments of thoughtful surprise. One moment you are beating your skull to “Eftio,” and the next are in a moment of introspection with the two-part “Demodex in Situ.” The range is revitalizing to listen along to, and I am eager for part two.
