If this is the first time that you're seeing this flyer, well, you missed a wonderful weekend of shows! It was an abundance of great music, great food, and excellent people! Just sharing the image because, once again, Plastic Flame Press did a lovely job with the artwork.

Fog b/w Nine Inch Cakes by FCKR JR

In a five minute burst, FCKR JR introduces their sonic template. “Fog” opens up with a wall of sonic fuzz. Lead singer Ben Grigg invites the listener in with his mellow vocal delivery. Certain vocal phrasings worm their way into your brain. As the song builds to a sudden end, there is no option but to play the song on repeat.

“Nine Inch Cakes” shows a more measured approach. The song seems to meander. Grigg is listing off cooking ingredients as the instruments move at a slow gait. Then, in the last minute and a half, there is a layer of fuzz that plays against the vocals in a pleasing end to FCKR JR’s first release.
