XO's: Pronounced Hugs and Kisses cassette
ļ»æOur takeļ»æ:Ā Iām selective about the pop-informed punk rock that I listen to. Maybe Iām a snob, but so much melodic punk I hear seems to lack substance and originality, borrowing moves from music I love without capturing the same magic. One current musician I back, though, is Joe Sussman. Joe first came onto my radar through his band Nancy, a two-piece featuring him and Nat Brower, another musician I keep a close eye on (his project Brower is not to be missed). NancyāsĀ With ChildĀ andĀ A Nice PackageĀ LPs both came out in 2016 and we listened to them all the time in the shopā¦ Jeff even liked them, and heās even more selective about poppy punk than I am. I then followed Joe to his other projects like Dangus Tarkus and Muff Divers; Nancy also remains a going concern, having just released a new album on Neck Chop and Erste Theke TontrƤger. XOās is a new Chicago-based project featuring Joe, who also released it on his Ketchup & Mustard Industries label, along with Mat from Liquids and Alex from Bleeding Gums. While Iāve devoted several sentences to fanboy-ing out on Joe, of the related bands, XOās sounds the most like Liquids, whom I also like, though Iāve had trouble keeping up with all of their releases. I also hear the Dickies and the Spits in XOās music, two bands who know their way around a great punk song. If you like any of these bands, XOās will be a slam dunk for you. Every song rules. And Iām reluctant to put too much emphasis on cover songs, but their cover of āTwo of Heartsā is awesome.
