    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

Well, I'm getting fucking sick of it
It's bad for business to be free
You know, I'm getting sick of it
Trade your rights for security
You know, I'm getting sick of it
They’re fucking people over every day
You know, I'm getting sick of it
We gotta stand up and say

We have to abandon this defeated helpless role
Quit counting on the government, we gotta question their control
Put our bodies on the gears and wipe this system clean
Instead of helping worthless scum with massive blindfolding

Singing it ain't me babe,
It ain't me they’re looking for, babe
It ain't me they’re looking for, babe, oh no no
It ain't me they’re looking for, babe, oh no no
It ain't me they’re looking for

Oh, Geneva, where have you gone
Oh, sweet Geneva in the land that I love
You're not here, love, so where are you now
Oh, sweet Geneva, they've taken you down
To Cuba in the dark of the night
You're charged with suspicion of suspicion
They never read your rights
Have they no shame, are they human at all
At least it ain't you or me, babe, is that reason at all

It ain't me babe,
It ain't me they’re looking for, babe
It ain't me they’re looking for, babe, oh no no
It ain't me they’re looking for, babe, oh no no
It ain't me they’re looking for
