Raydios - Brand New Kid / My Way Back Home - Vinyl (7-Inch)

Although the Raydios have released scads of good records since reforming sometime in the mid-aughts, they may have just outdone themselves with their new single quot;Brand New Kidquot; b/w quot;My Way Back Homequot; - co-released by Slovenly Recordings and Tokyo's Mangrove label! Around two years ago, after TEENGENERATE played a reunion show to celebrate the release of their quot;Get Actionquot; documentary, Fink mentioned that playing in TG gave him the itch to start writing simpler, more straight-forward songs again, and that's just what he's done with quot;Brand New Kid.quot; The song doesn't waste any time, kicking off with the fury of a head-hunting boxer, while the flip side, quot;My Way Back Homequot; is a bit more of a slow burner, but packing a hell of a wallop in it's own right. You're gonna be in need the number of a good oral surgeon once this one is over, guaranteed! - Steve Borchardt, Superfan.
