The Other Shoe Drops by My Pet Fossil is out everywhere today.
The MPF sound is heavily inspired by the experience of living in Sacramento, the overlooked capital of the richest, most populous state in the richest country in the world. Surrounded by oppressive seas of concrete, freeways, and billboards, the trio explore their influences widely from classic indie rock into noise rock and emotional hardcore. Julian’s drawl is singular, spitting out lyrical themes of resilience in the face of anxiety and isolation.
This one will be available on cassette asap! stayed tuned for more on that.
