    This is the debut LP from Shitty Weekend, Portland’s most smart-mouthed DIY shredders. The band shares several members with the Taxpayers, including frontdude Andrew Link, as well as PDX grindcore stalwarts Transient. Taxpayers fans will be happy to recognize some familiar goofpunx elements in “Shit Week”, including bouncy horn lines and plenty of folky arpeggios, but Shitty Weekend. But it doesn’t shy away from the nastier, thrashier end of the punk spectrum either. Songs like “Don’t Tell Me Don’t” and “Employee of the Month” channel the frantic hostility of ‘80s hardcore punk in furious bursts, self-destructing before the one-minute-mark as often as not. Andrew’s shrieking vocals expound on religion, government, dad rock, and 9-to-5 ambitions while distorted guitars screech and Noah wails on the drums like his life depends on it. The end result is melodic, aggressive, sarcastic, dissonant, sincere, and punk as fuck. No fucking flossing, punk rock or die.

    Featuring similarly punk as fuck cover art by Keith Rosson.

    This is a run of 500 LPs: 250 on randomly mixed colored vinyl and 250 on black. Random mix vinyl comes in a few variants and all of them legitimately look awesome. You get what you get! If you reeeaally like a certain color, leave a note in your order and we'll try to get you one.

lyrics

(Eat ROCKS, Mom and Dad!)

Don't tell me Don't
Because I won't
Don't tell me what to say
Don't tell me how to play

I'll break the bars of your cage
That are trying to hold my brain
You're driving me insane
Don't tell me what to do

Don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to do

Sometimes it feels like the opposition is just the same
I want a place where I don't need to point a finger of blame
I'm just trying to fit in without going nuts
