Night Birds- Midnight Movies 7"
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I am not a huge fan of the surf/skate punk thing. Granted there are a few exceptions I usually don't go for this kind of stuff. Night Birds are one of those exceptions. It's the combination of the bands musical chops and vibrant energy that just makes everything they do seem explosive. Midnight Movies is their 3rd 7" and is my favorite so far because it shows that these guys know exactly what they are doing, the songs are tight and they have shaped their sound perfectly.
The title track Midnight Movies takes up the A-side and showcases everything these guys are about and wreaks of a retro surf vibe. The B-side is made up of 3 short songs that lean more towards the hardcore side and come off with a lot of bite and that energy i was talking about earlier really comes alive.
To me this is one of the only bands playing right now that can pull this sound off. Night Birds are perfect for fans of Agent Orange, The Ergs and Older Descendents. Pick up this 7" from any distro and keep your ear to the ground for their up coming LP.
Midnight Movies was released on NO WAY records.
