Cherry Cheeks are back with the follow up to their highly praised debut
LP. Now a full band based out of Portland, OR with a few successful
tours under their belt and a strongly defined sound CCLPII picks up
where last year's CHERRY RADIO EP left off. The songs are more fleshed
out, the production crisper, and the hooks are gigantic with layers of
synths and electronic bleeps and blurps peppered throughout. The manic
energy is still front and center but the poppier elements hinted at with
songs like 'Go Outside' and'Two Bugs' on their debut are given much
greater focus on the album's hit heavy A-side. On the flip the album
takes a darker and more sinister turn. The synths are more heavily
featured the vocals have more bite and the punk muscle fully flexed.
Cherry Cheeks prove they've got some staying power and I'm excited to
see what they have in store for CCLPIII. Catchy, razor sharp, and 100%
TOTAL PUNK
