Dan Padilla - Sports Fans

How great are fucking Dan Padilla! Their inability to reprint their Hell Bent For Burritos t-shirt aside, the San Diego foursome continues to relentlessly churn out awesome West Coast punk rock ala Tiltwheel, with whom they share most (if not all at this point) of their members.

Hooky as shit, with almost a Superchunk vibe at times, Sports Fans continues where their last record, the exceedingly awesome As The Ox Plows left off. Booze and bruised hearts still figure prominently in the proceedings, but listening to the thirteen tracks here, even this asshole might be able to believe that things are going to be alright.

Sports Fans is available inmediatamente digitally from your pals at Dirt Cult Records, with word being that vinyl is coming towards the end of the year. I wouldn't wait, as Bar Stool Forgetting and Burning On The Inside continue to haunt my dreams with their awesomeness and the rest are damn close to being as good.

Get Sports Fans here.
