Philadelphia’s Broken Beak, the side-project of Modern Baseball’s Brendan Lukens ((who’s Curse Burner featured on our list of Free Music from 2015), have recently signed to DIY label Near Mint and are busy preparing to release their second LP later this year. The band have already spent some time in the studio with Modern Baseball’s Jake Ewald, and I’m sure the album is taking shape. To tide us over until then, Broken Beak have released a double single, Deliver / Bake.
‘Deliver’ immediately ups the ante from last year’s EP, delivering a short-but-sweet dose of Thermals-esque catchy lo-fi pop-punk, while ‘Bake’ is a tumultuous and moreish indie rock track which will appeal to fans of Spook Houses and LVL UP. Check it out below:
The biggest downfall of this release is that it’s all over too soon. The album release can’t come quick enough! Get the single on a name-your-price basis via the Broken Beak Bandcamp page, or via Near Mint.
