“Perhaps the greatest punk group in America today?” – Now Wave Zine<\/p>\n
“More honest, true energy and heart than 90% of the bands I’ve seen this year”\u00a0\u00a0 – Punk News<\/p>\n
Milwaukee, WI’s Modern Machines return with their\u00a0 4th CD (after a string of cassette-only releases), first for Dirtnap,
\nand it’s easily their best one yet!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 True pop smarts meets classsic\u00a0 upper midwestern punk inspiration filtered thru modern day basement punk
\nsensibilities. Husker Du meets early Replacements meets early\u00a0 Lemonheads (remember when they were good?) meets Dillinger 4 meets The
\nFiggs?\u00a0 While these comparisons remain fairly apt, Take It, Somebody\u00a0 sees the band incorporating older and more diverse influences into their
\ndistinctive songwritingstyle, including 60’s garage rock, and even a little Americana-esque twang.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Heartfelt, sincere, clever songwriting
\nfrom one of the hardest working bands in punk rock, who, by the sound of things, are only beginning to hit their stride. Oh yeah, and it was
\nrecorded in a basement in Milwaukee for $200. What more could you\u00a0 possibly want?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
