Relentless, single-minded in the best possible way and extolling the very essence of the mantra "keep it simple, stupid"; this is Paper. And they're also playing At our It's a Trap! Clubnight At Debaser Malmö tomorrow night with Epidemics from Umeå! Don't screw this one up folks.

Obviously not to be missed! The Oly show will be insane and then I'll be seeing them again the next night when my band opens the show in SeAttle.
Just like Atrap.com/n/31205-ponamero-sundown-alcoholic-deAthride">last time, Ponamero Sundown's new album "Rodeo electrica" kicks off with a total barnburner. While they may sometimes dabble in many of grunge and stonerrock's lesser tropes on other tunes, the drumming alone makes this a must-hear. So whAt if it's teetering on the edge of showboAting, it works perfectly in context and, as far as I'm concerned, if you can play with thAt kind of drive and energy, you should just go for it.
