Gen Gap: Hanging Out With Gen Gap 7"
Debut recording and EP by Philadelphia's GEN GAP
9 Tracks of the hardcore punk variety
Our take: MF Records—the record label arm of the Delco MFs rock and roll group—brings us the debut 9-song (!!!) EP from this new Philadelphia band featuring 3 members of the current MFs lineup along with two other Philly punkers. As you might expect from a 9-song EP, this is hardcore punk, but hardcore punk of the snotty and hooky variety. Tracks like “First Gen” and “Used Up” blaze at hyper-fast, near Delco MFs speeds, but “Fuckshit” and “Scumbag” are punkier, with chunky, major-key riffs and the occasional burst of lead guitar providing an extra bit of hook-age. A couple mid-paced sections like the breakdown in “Strut” and the stomping “Five” keep the pit moving, while the vocals are fast and snotty, occasionally rising above the din with a memorable line or phrase. Hanging Out with Gen Gap presents itself as no-frills, but airtight song construction and blistering performances ensure this is a cut well above. Limited to just 300 copies too, so scoop one quick.
