Pooched Pooched / Tercel LP
The A-side is the Pooched LP and the B-side is the Tercel LP, so two LPs on one LP which is an LP/LP, I guess. First, I’m a sucker for a dog on a record cover, and this dog looks like he’s into being pet upon, and also aloof a little bit, and fine to do its own thing. I bet this pooch twitches and squeaks a lot when it is dreaming about an open field or jumping at butterflies or whatever. Musically, this falls in line with all of the New York and New Jersey pop punk greats like UNLOVABLES, SHORT ATTENTION, the MEASURE, the ERGS!, and so on. These songs that span four years of the band’s existence are all crafted wonderfully and are masterfully unforgettable in a memorable and hummable way. You’ll have these tunes in your brain for days, similar to all of the best FASTBACKS songs.
