Stoke Signals (featuring former members of Promise Me This and Holy Fangs) have played their first show as early as January of this year, but that didn’t stop the LA-based band from hitting the ground running. With a full-length already in the can, sprinting Usain Bolt-style is more like it, actually. The album is called ‘Make Dying Fun’ and it comes with a dozen melodic punk rock bangers.
Check out cuts like ‘Burning Daylight’, single ‘Holy Fangs’ and ‘Neon’ to get a good idea of what these guys are capable of. Not only do they already sound like a well-oiled unit, but these songs pack all the energy and melody you can ask for, delivered with a healthy dose of grit. I’m sure there are better comparisons, but think of ‘Dude Ranch’ era Blink-182 if they were a Fest band and had something to say that transcends poop jokes.
