After eight long years, Swingin’ Utters are finally back with a new album. It’s called “Here, Under Protest!” and it boasts everything that you’ve come to expect from this long-running San Francisco outfit, right down to the dollar signs in their logo.
They still know how to tell a good story with smart lyrics, upbeat rhythms and trusty chords like they have been doing for over two decades. The folky influences are still there as well but most of all these guys are rocking the old-school punk like it never went away.
Whether you’re freaking out to the rallying cry of “(You’ve Got To) Give It All To The Man” or bouncing around on “Good Things” or “Kick It Over”, the Utters get the job done and prove once more that they’re one of the longest-running relevant bands in our scene.
Score: 8.5 out of 10
