Swingin' Utters: Here Under Protest (2011) PLUS FREE LIVE DOWNLOAD!)



Unusual for a Fat Wreck-Chords band, San Francisco's Swingin' Utters bring a dump track full of gravel to their performance. When it all hits home, on songs like "Teenage Genocide" from their debut album or "Brand New Lungs from their new album, Here Under Protest, it's devastating. While their work can sometimes seems maddeningly inconsistent, perhaps it's just the inevitable by by-product of having multiple lead singers (original front man "Johny 'Peebucks" Bonnell often surrenders the mic to guitarist Darius Kosk not to mention 2nd guitarist Jack Dalrymple as well bassist Spike Slawson, who is also the lead singer of Me First and the Gimme-Gimme's).




The stunning kick-of to the new album, "Brand New Lungs" sounds, despite the band's insistence that they're a street-punk band, like a modern, bleaker Agent Orange song.

  4. There best release since Streets of San Francisco IMHO. Just to clear things up here, Darius not Spike sings most of the songs when Johnny is not singing. I know the band and have seen/played with them throughout the years. Just thought I would put my 2 cents in.
