The Spinoffs - Stayin Alive


By Christophe

When a poppunk band kicks off the new 7" with a Bee-Gees cover, you know you have a ballsy bunch on your record player.

Even more so, the cover is also the title track for the 7".

That's crazy. Imagine John Travolta dancing to this! What wer eyou guys thinking?

The five tracks on this EP are only good for about 6 minutes. And that's okay. The Spinoffs sound different than other poppunk bands, also drawing influences not just from Screeching Weasel or The Riverdales, but also from other legends like Dickies or the Buzzcocks. And the short tracks keep the energy pumping.

Needless to say, I dig this.
Score: 7 out of 10
