The Spiky Tops Let’s Go! Pogo! EP
I mean, look at the cover. You already know. The songs are snotty and beer-fueled BLANKS 77, the CASUALTIES, the PIST, and the QUEERS-flavored punk rock. Sometimes in their photos, they have spiked-up hair, so I wonder if the name SPIKY TOPS comes from that. The songs are brimming with energy. The lyrics, although a little formulaic, are honest and heartfelt. For example, in the song “Going Down to the Bar,” I really believe that the guy wants to meet up with me and go down to the bar. Furthermore, in the song “Let’s Go Pogo,” I feel like the SPIKY TOPS want me to go pogo somewhere. This is a catchy, hands-in-the-air, chuggin’ 40oz of beers or seltzers music, and when they sing “Party till your guts spill out” in the song “Party Till Your Guts Spill Out,” I know that these folks would be laughing as they hold my hair back while my guts spilled out of my mouth.
