MxPx

High-velocity skate punk covers of 80s pop and classic rock. Raw, energetic, and unapologetically fun with a distinct mid-90s basement production feel.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the double-time drum beat kicks in immediately on Summer of 69, transforming a classic rock anthem into a sprint.
The frantic, distorted bass line that carries the melody of Take On Me through its high-speed chorus.
The sudden shift to a mechanical rhythm on Drum Machine Joy that breaks the organic punk flow.

Lo Fi+1.6σ

The production is pushed notably harder into lo fi than this artist usually allows.
