Mormon Crosses (2014)

Vancouver, British Columbia Canada

Continuing the Pacific Northwest's twin love affair with Washington, DC and mind-altering substances, these longhaired ne'er-do-wells play their bomb-shelter art-punk like Dischord was a psych label. Their alternate-tuned, angular/buzzsaw guitars, fluid drumming and Jah Wobble basslines have been setting minds ablaze up and down the I-5; there's no telling what damage they'll wreak now they're east of the Rockies.
