Sent in by a F.O.T.E. while I was on tour last month, this demo unfortunately spent far too long languishing on my shelf before I finally got wise and took a few minutes to devour its contents. And my procrastination started biting me in the ass thirteen seconds into "Police Car (Goin' Home)," a brilliantly and simply crafted two riff anthem with a flawless bass solo and in your face (but tongue in cheek) lyrics that draws you in instantly. Pressed in the tried and true Riot City/UK82 mold, these Quebecers nail it better than any band I've heard since CRIMINAL DAMAGE. PROXY's take is a touch more rock 'n roll, but the result is similar - every song is a total banger, and instant classic. Yeah, "Wasted Days" is cheesy as shit in both content and presentation, but it just fukkn rules. And bad ass is bad ass, even if you've heard it before.
