Sick of those bands that are too serious for their own good? Well, look no further. ACID REFLUX is here to put the FUN back in Hardcore Punk! Completely sarcastic and funny lyrics belted out over some very intense hardcore punk is what you get here. This ep contains selected tracks from their unbelievable demo.

Strike of the Week #8: Dirty Looks EP

Up next on Strike of the Week is the newest seven inch from Dirty Looks, out on Long Island's Iron Pier Records. Iron Pier's been pumping out a slew of great punk records, and this one's no exception. Check the description below:

Dirty Looks play Brooklyn nuevo-grunge and sound to the band like The Gits and Dead Moon and to some others like The Vaselines, Bikini Kill and early Replacements. Ex Members of: Bent Outta Shape, Crybaby Macarthur, Beer Garden, United States, Scent Of Human History, Neverending Party, etc.

Dirty Looks was born in September 2005 in Brooklyn, NY when Skip and Nate were living in a two-bedroom apartment on Bartlett St. The living room became the practice space and soon Ren and Gaylen joined them. Cheap 12 packs would be purchased from the freezer section at Food Bazaar and Gaylen would scream over the boys jamming through blown-out PA speakers.
