I had not heard of this band prior to getting the opportunity to preview this track but I later went back and checked out their 2023 single “Judy, “Judy, Judy.”  That is a cool and worthy side trip to take if you have a chance.   You can hear some of the punchy hooks and pop grooves there that carry forward to “Away From Me.”

This new release (set to drop today on Wicked Cool Records) jumps right off with a high energy guitar riff that is quickly joined by their second guitar that rides along nicely, howling just a little under the booming bass and guitar line.  You will find hooks aplenty on this track and they kept me pumped up and happy all the way through.  There was also enough energy pouring out of every minute that I kind of wanted to run around the block a few times (which I did not do…but it definitely felt possible!).   Check out the guitar solo breakdown that starts around 1:25 also as it is quite the kick in the pants.  Overall, this is a fun and interesting song to listen to and I highly recommend it to your attention.

Album pre-orders do launch today also – you should be able to pick up that info via their website.
