Suspect Parts - You Know I Can't Say No

  You know what, I'm really proud of the Just Some Punk Songs Show. Crap host but he plays some awesome music. Some of the great bands that have featured on there include The Briefs, Red Dons, Clorox Girls, More Kicks, Radio Dead Ones and Maniac. Rather amazingly, members of all those bands are in "apocalypse pop" super group Suspect Parts (another cool band that have featured several times on both the show and this blog. Vocalist and guitarist Justin Maurer was even kind enough to select a Top 10 a couple of years ago   https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2017/10/top-10-songs-chosen-by-justin-maurer.html ).

  Anyway, there's a new single from the band, it's released today and it's bloody good. Lining up alongside Justin is James Sullivan (guitar/vocals), Chris Brief (drums) and Andru Bourbon (bass). Think 60's pop, bubblegum, 70's Californian beach punk and powerpop. Think The Seeds, The Kinks, Buzzcocks, The Knack. Think spiky, infectious harmonies.... If you're a fan of the band you'll already have a good idea of what to expect.

  3 songs, 7" vinyl available from Wanda Records (Europe) and Dirt Cult (USA/Canada)

  In support of the single, there's a German tour arranged for late August/early September and you can check out details here : https://www.facebook.com/SuspectParts/

  This is the lead track, a heartbreak anthem of resilience, regret and romance, it's called You Know I Can't Say No...
