The first song I heard from Beach Slang was Filthy Luck off their EP “Who Would Ever Want Anything So Broken?”. It kicks off the release with lingering teenage angst: “Im a slave to always fucking up”. Well, Beach Slang, your not alone on that one. The energetic instrumentals clash perfectly with the lackadaisical Goo Goo Dolls-like vocals and melodramatic lyrics. Its a perfect storm for a good summer alternative-pop-punk (so many genres) song.

Once the song really kicks in, the third song on the EP, Get Lost really shoves you emotionally. The oohs at the end of the song are still stuck in my head. Punk or Lust is definitely a feel good punk song reminiscent of the late 90s on the surface but also has the angsty sound matching the rest of the EP.

So lets say you take early 2000’s pop punk and put it with late 90’s rock, you get the laid back punk sound that creates Beach Slangs whole vibe. Theres no telling what will happen in the future for this buzz worthy band but hopefully only good things. In the not so distant future, they have some tour dates planned throughout the eastern half of North America. Check it out here.
