Red Dons - "Genocide" b/w "Letters" – New 7"

RED DONS “GENOCIDE" b/w “LETTERS” 7”

From numerous tours to past collaborations with venerated punks like TV SMITH (THE ADVERTS) and JESSE MICHAELS (OPERATION IVY), Red Dons have proven that a band can continue to accomplish a great deal despite growing life obligations and members scattered across the globe. Now in their 11th year as a band, Red Dons have established a formula of dark, driving punk rock with catchy melodic hooks. These new songs deliver on that tradition. Genocide nods to early-Southern California punk (e.g., Dangerhouse Records, Agent Orange) with its downstroked mid-tempo rhythm, layers of subtly distorted guitars, and anthemic chorus; however, as Red Dons have done in the past, they are able to evoke the reference without aping the style. Letters is slightly slower with the bass driving the bouncing music under Doug’s signature vocal melodies. If you are familiar with Red Dons, then the quality of the songwriting on this release will continue to fulfill expectations. If you are just now discovering the band, then you will be both pleasantly surprised and baffled that such an amazing band has escaped your attention before now.  This 7” will be released in a limited edition of 500 copies available only through the band and/or Man In Decline Records.
