Cypress and Long Beach have brought you something that isn’t like the normal crap they usually shit out. The Shadowmen are like the good stuff you used to see at shows when you were sixteen. Funny story: the drummer of this band totally made me feel like a douchebag pretty often when I was in 8th grade, cause like, he had a huge mohawk (or did he have three?) and I wasn’t punk enough (I had no mohawks and bought all my patches at bionic at the same time). I probably deserved it and we’re friends now so don’t hold it against him. I just like to rub it in his face whenever I’m drunk or when I know someone else will think it’s funny. Anyway, see if you can catch my drift on this one: They’ve got that uber squeaky sounding synthesizer and those screamy I’m-American-but-I-wish-I-was-British rock ‘n roll vocals that always sound like shit when they’re out of place. The Shadowmen should have been a band when threeoneg was still putting out good shit. But they weren’t. So hopefully you’ll decide not to hold it against them and come help ‘em capsize a boat:
