The Tough Alliance
Holiday EP
Service

The Tough Alliance, the tough ass band that carry baseball bats in their photos and sings about how Coca-Cola runs in their veins, have now on their second single penned a super catchy love song. Right now, I'm looking forward to The Tough Alliance's album more than anything else. Their electropunk has taken me by storm and if there's a more interesting band in the whole wide world, please tell me. This EP also consists of a fine cover of Primal Scream's "Velocity girl" and some sort of weird interlude.
- Simon Tagestam

Service Records, home of hyped acts such as The Tough Alliance and Embassy, have opened a New York City office. More info soon.
