Booji Boys
Weekend Rockers

To devolve is a concept that lingers in the minds of post-modern intellectuals and philosophers. In the culture of searching the past, returning to the primordial is difficult to abhor.
The example of the caveman who strikes stones and creates sounds was certainly not the masterpiece of rhythm or timbre; but I digress.

Devo-lution, Devo, Booji Boy is the simpleton, the adult with the face of a child.
The band in question falls under the Devo-Core genre, as the name implies, bands inspired by the madmen from Akron: dehumanizing sounds, making melodies quirky with absurd lyrics; I think not, the Booji Boys go beyond this label.

Garage Rock, Hardcore Punk, Post-Hardcore.
The record revolves in the vein of Land Speed Record with fast and super-fast tracks (Weekend Rockers, Satisfaction) and from that evolution that occurred in Metal Circus which leaned towards a raw post-hardcore (Piscine Perfect, Highest Guy), logically continuing the development of Minor Threat's hardcore punk and Rites Of Spring's emocore (Mr. Nazi's On The Beat, Ripper Too, Locked Up In The City); however, there are moments closer to the post-punk of Wipers or Mission of Burma (Doin The Pyre and Love Was Strange).

The album unexpectedly concludes, after these shards reaching just over two minutes, with the nearly 8 minutes of Oh Yeah: a track that rides hardcore punk and post-hardcore, continuously mutating until it reaches an acid, whispered, emo-oriented central progression with a pompous bass progression.

Perhaps the future will be entropy, a lack of comforting and redundant footholds, but our boys truly keep the face of a child..
