Playing Favorites (CD)
Sheer Mag
Amoeba Review
Beloved Philly punks Sheer Mag are back with their first new album in five years and their first record for Third Man. And it is so, so good. Playing Favorites is bursting with solid gold "straight up rock bangers," as singer Tina Halladay puts it. Guaranteed to get you in a great mood while still maintaining your power pop/punk rock cred, these tracks feel like emissaries from a bigger, bouncier, bolder rock 'n' roll past, where pop sensibilities collided with street cool. Playing Favorites will make you long for a sweaty Sheer Mag basement show but until that happens, crank these tracks to maximum volume and headbang your way into bliss.
