Happy Birthday, Dad

McCafferty

Aggressive acoustic strumming meets manic, confessional vocals. A short, sharp burst of midwest folk punk recorded with raw, unpolished bedroom intimacy.

2014

A high-tension explosion of suburban angst and self-deprecating honesty.

The stripped-back vulnerability of Dead-Bird (Alternate Version) highlighting the raw, unpolished nature of the recording.
The sudden, jarring conclusion of Xoo that leaves the listener suspended in a moment of unresolved tension.
