Pavid Vermin - Judy Go Home (Guest review by Alex Kish)



  So yesterday I received a message from world famous Wassup Rocker Radio show host (https://www.facebook.com/wassuprockerradio/) Alex Kish which read "This is cool" and contained a link to a new 10 track Pavid Vermin (https://www.facebook.com/pavidvermin/) album.

  I replied "Yeah I saw it earlier, not checked it out yet. Do you fancy reviewing it?"

  And he did. Sort of. Briefly and enthusiastically. Leading me to reply I think I may have to pad it out!

  So firstly Alex's review...

  This comp is like being 13 again discovering the greatness that was Lookout! Records. every song on this comp is solid and a majority i still listen to today. Pavid Vermin is great, go buy their stuff! And support this fantastic label as well called Bloated Kat Records!

  And now my padding...

  Pavid Vermin are rapidly turning into one of the pop punk world's most prolific artists. The alter ego of Glenn Robinson (https://glennrobinson.bandcamp.com/), I featured what I think was Pavid's first release on here just over a year ago (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2019/04/pavid-vermin-i-dont-wanna-be-ramone.html) and in the short time since then, there's already been 3 full lengths (Jump!, Jive! And Fail!, Throw Me In The Trash and Cutting Corners). Featuring some of the catchiest tracks around, that back catalogue is now expanded by this love letter to Lookout! Records. Titled Pavid Ruins Some Songs it features new versions of classics originally recorded by the likes of Groovie Ghoulies, MTX, Green Day, Operation Ivy, Squirtgun etc.

  At the moment 100% of proceeds from this release are going to The Eastern Iowa Community Bond Project and the FANG Community bail fund   https://communitybondproject.networkforgood.com/projects/101939-free-our-protesters
 https://www.gofundme.com/f/fangbailfund 
All future proceeds from this album will go to The Foodbank of Rhode Island and Save Pangolins

  Great music, great causes check it out... https://bloatedkatrecords.bandcamp.com/album/lookout-pavid-vermin-ruins-some-songs
