Shoplifting
“Self-Titled”
(Kill Rock Stars)
Fresh from the “huggy nation” (wherever the fuck that is?) come Shoplifting, the liveliest bunch of kids since Up With Motherfucking People rolled through your town. If this four-song debut is any indication of what this band is capable of, then the next few years should be fucking interesting (despite the fact that we’ll all probably be living in a police state by then.) It’s slightly sonic indie rock, with the sensibility of a ferret that can read English & Spanish and think human thoughts. If there’s one thing I can say about Shoplifting, (other than I recommend and endorse them) is if you get a chance to see them live, yell at the chicks, “What’s between your legs? Your CHAUNCH!?” It’s important to include the, “your chaunch!?” part, because then they’ll know you’re cool and they’ll probably give you a free sticker or button after the show for using the word chaunch. Good luck!
