"She Likes Todd - Expose Reality 7"ep"

Yo, She Likes Todd -- you really saved yourself by playing some tight skatepunk here, because your media package is SO OVER THE TOP. I don't need some incredibly specific "media kit" that details not only the 20 biggest bands you've played with and 14 notable venues you've played at but your average draw per show and set length. Jesus Christ, I don't give a shit. I'm not the head of Nitro Records. I write these reviews for free and still live with my dad.

I don't really think you need a "radio edit" of your single either, dudes. Fungus was killed like a year ago or something.

Anyway, this band's apparently been around since at least 2000 according to their discography listing (every release of which has been self-released). But I have to hand it to them, since this 7", Expose Reality, really isn't bad. It's not bad at all. They clearly love Propagandhi, as they offer a slightly technical and meaty take on the EpiFat sound, with really smooth vocals that never trend towards being too husky, snotty or bellowing.

"Another Starless Night" has a few good bass breaks, solid tempo changes and just a welcomed urgency, while the "hey"s in "Kaleidoscope of Screams" aren't at all forced, with the song carrying a bit of an early NUFAN feel.

Awful fucking name. Needless abundance of biographical and statistical information. Very decent 7". Let the music speak for itself, guys, because it's quite promising (and hopefully a band a decade old doesn't take "promising" as an insult).

Bio

This PBR fueled 4 piece from Chicago is an intense combination of thrashing guitars and melodic vocals set over intricate drums and bass work. Taking inspiration from bands such as NOFX, Propagandhi, Frenzal Rohmb and A Wilhelm Scream, SLT writes punk rooted music about real life, friends and fallouts, the way the world works and how they've seen it so far. With undying determination, She Likes Todd continues play all over the US and spread their music to whoever they can, however they can.
