Tokyo based punk band Fever Moon (now stylized as FVRMN) releases its fourth album, Back To The Whip, tomorrow via Bifocal Media. balance of both sincerity and a sick sense of humor.

Back To The Whip was meant to be a “one and done” kind of a raw slam punch to the guts; but once he got a few friends on board (including Mike Watt of Minutemen, Chris Broach of Braid, Christian Madden of The Liam Gallagher Band, and more), things began shaping up into a more refined type of beast with multiple layers that slowly began to expose themselves with each repeated listen.

Fans of heavyweight hooks a la Dinosaur Jr, Superchunk, Husker Du, Leatherface should all rejoice as FVRMN’s big wall of sound guitars creates a dense blast of sound that matches up perfectly with the fine-tuned razor-sharp art of true songcraft.

Back To The Whip will be released digitally and as a limited-edition LP on red and ultra-clear vinyl. Pre-orders are available HERE.
