Date Release : August 14th 2018

Okay... After being busy of daily job and other activities that wouldnt allow me to crack out any writing draft for this weird webzine, finally this time please welcoming my fingers dancing for writing some words for one of full length that just being put out by one of my favourite band, Bad Sleep! Yas after did some EPs on various labels like Rumbletowne to Reflective Tapes, this Olympia trio finally put out their debut self-titled full length.
As stories laid, Bad Sleep members has as well have and had several musical projects like Lily used to play with Parasol and having a solo moniker project called Squill and the other also being known for playing music in Xylitol as well. Looking up into the band history itself, after releasing their debut EP via Rumbletowne Recrods seemslike these trio has taken further step ahead by touring with several bands that I know been sound really gewd such as Austeros for Europe touring on 2018 and Whelmed for their East Coast Tour on the same year. Its been good to see the band that you love is being productive and constantly work for good!
I personally think that comparing to the first stuffs that they been put out back in the days, this full length sounds no different and this I mean they still rock of what they used to be. Its beeen impressive to hear crunchy guitar sound that blend up with sloppy voice of Lily. As well as I can describe you that they would be a good representative for any revival powerpop sounds that being highlighted on the scene today. Take examples bands like Bad Moves, Joyride!, Dark Thoughts, or Laika's Orbit that would representative to explain how the band related sounds! The other fun thing is that the full length is only lasted less than 20 minutes for 10 songs! I dont know its been lovely to hear a short well punching powerpop song lately and by this I dont have to miss my old powerviolence days lol!
This full length is put out by three records label on two different contintents. First is Specialist Subject for Europe/UK distribution and second is Square of Opposition and Stupid Bag Records for US distribution. Also if you're such a 21st Century Digital Boy, this full length just available to be purchased on their bandcamp site at a 'Name Your Price' thing!
