Fireworks at Performer Magazine

Cut to snow-white vinyl, the Fireworks’ debut LP, Switch Me On, is a masterstroke of noise, feedback, reverb, and 12-string jangle that’s basically the best Buzzcocks record the Buzzcocks never made.

A frenetic energy that causes tracks to… Continue reading Eureka California at PerformerMag
