Description
Records are here and shipping. THere was a slight overage on color vinyl so we received some that are blue with some black swirl in them. They are listed under color but know that they will have some black in them.
Itchy & The Nits could very well hold the distinction of being the worlds most charming band. They possess a friendship that one could only imagine exists in teen sitcoms of the 60s and 70s and Saturday morning cartoons. The world could collapse tomorrow (seems probable) and with the rest of us hysterically running around, hands to the heavens, The Nits would be gathered in some cave banging on rocks, strumming rubber bands and putting each other in stitches. They are the real deal 21st century Monkees.
Welcome to The Itchy & the Nits show / Dance like youre at the disco sings the chorus to the Nits second Theme Song, which opens their sophomore album. Greetings From… contains odes to Smelly Boys, swimming at the Nudie Beach, and watching television on a beautiful day; more songs about relationships and less songs about getting crabs. ‘Cartoon’ is littered with classic sound effects swiped from the songs source material, which feels perfectly at home amongst this setting. Even at their most introspective, on song such as ‘Waiting Around’ and ‘Gimmie a Break’, the sounds are more suited for the beach than the funeral parlour, and simplicity is still the order of the day. We dont hear a guitar solo till album closer ‘City Line’, most of the songs are two to three chords, and the choruses are generally a group chant sure to stick in your skull and crack you up.
Itchy & The Nits have spent the last two years honing their craft while touring across the US, EU and Japan. They know how to boogie, make you laugh, and write a catchy melody. David Forciers outstanding production really allows those melodies to shine while still capturing the bands primal allure! Greetings From Itchy & the Nits is out via Total Punk and Anti Fade Records.
