There’s one group of rockers that stands out to us among the rest and that is Shiny Wet Machine. On April 25th the duo dropped their debut EP, Lights Out, on Diet Punk, but on June 22nd they released the b-sides of their project. Even though they’re just b-sides, they are well worth the listen.
Four tracks were cut from the EP, but they could have made it on if SWM was going for an album. We love when people release b-sides, because sometimes there are some gems that get lost through the filtering process. Shiny Wet Machine aren’t about filters though. Punk lives and breathes through them, so jumping back to the time when b-sides were more common isn’t something that is all that surprising. We’re glad they did this, because now we have four more rockin’ records to enjoy from two of our favorite musicians.
