Starter Jackets, Preferred Stock EP, 7" Vinyl Record, 45 RPM, Pink & Yellow Split With Black Splatter on It's Alive Records
Starter Jackets, from Springfield, Illinois, is the latest band from pop punk virtuoso Luke McNeill of The Copyrights and Hospital Job.
Luke
is joined in Starter Jackets by fellow Hospital Job drummer Fred
Malcom, and newcomers Lanny Durbin on guitar & vocals, and Tyler
Curry on bass.
Fans of The Copyrights and Hospital Job will find
plenty of the hook-laden melodic jams they've come to expect from
McNeill's bands, but Starter Jackets take it to new territory with a
more indie or even new wave leaning style.
Bright guitars, clean
bass, and punchy drums laid on top of synthesizer-driven melodies make
for an incredibly catchy, full, and rich sounding collection of songs.
The
trade off of lead vocals between Lanny and Luke adds yet another layer
of diversity to the array of musical instrumentation laid down by
Starter Jackets on Preferred Stock, making for one hell of a killer
debut release by this fresh new band.
