Voodoo Love Mint
Small Pet O.K.
(Erosion)
Voodoo Love Mint's, Small Pet O.K. herds together twelve quick punk flashes that draw its tragedies from ordinary life. It's a hyperbolic hootenanny juggling chugging rock riffs that charge out of the gate and squeak geeky vocals that tear at former mates. The turn on a dime dynamics manage to hammer out witty little epitaphs in between the blasts of half laughs, chortling guitars and slaphappy drumming. Short tunes with deep pockets, Small Pet O.K. reads both as a nervous little personal ad and an everyday business transaction. Instant classics like, "Too Hungover to Come Over," "Fun with Bugs" and "My Parent's Waterbed" ricochet with zany existentialism while grounded in everyday life. A thrashing good time with obvious nods to the Ramones, Voodoo Love Mint are the pause that refreshes. Try some now.
