The Rumjacks / Flatfoot 56
split EP
(Figure Four)




Witness surplus vim, in rollicking and accordian-laced Celtic punk splendor. The tuneful material is impeccably crafted and has memorable singalong appeal loaded in. It hies past with good-natured zeal born of observational analyses of circumstances and acidic awareness. Both groups shine.

Recommended Rumjacks: "White Caps," "Fifth Ward Firestorm," "What Was Your Name In the States" 
                         Flatfoot 56: "Mud," "Sorry," "Trouble"

Videos: "Whitecaps"
             "Mud"
