NICE GUYS/FREE PIZZA SPLIT TAPE.

Very cool new fast and punky tape courtesy of Boston’s own BUFU Records. This spilt features one local punk staple and one that once was local, but now international. One side features two new tunes and one ballad by Allston bad boys Nice Guys. Their side is loud and lo-fi. “Reels of Fire” is rolling and tumbling through fuzzy riffs and heavy drums. At just under a minute, “Best Buds” does not let this tape skip a beat as this song keep shouting at you. They end their side with a semimental lullaby about how they “miss my Free Pizza”. Nice Guys is what garage punk should be: rough and fast and fun.

Free Pizza absence from Boston has surely been felt since they moved to Florida then Germany, but that is just what makes this tapes so sweet. Their three tracks are just like the friendly n’ fun punk Free Pizza you remember. You might even know some of the songs if you’ve seen them live, like “Oh Yeah That Deep Breath.” Free Pizza is so cool because all of the music is so happy, positive, and easily applicable. The lyrics and hooks are catchy, simple, and have the perfect amount of garage rock mixed in with an arty pop. It is very easy to feel good and hopefully while listening to Free Pizza.
