Fresh off sold-out release shows in Seattle and Portland over the weekend, Wimps have unveiled the video for “Dump” from their new LP for Kill Rock Stars.
Seattle’s punk rock’s slackers in chief, Wimps, serve their own brand of rapid-fire punk with a smattering of lo-fi post punk guitar work to create an angular, slightly off-kilter blast. Front woman and guitarist, Rachel Ratner lyrically twists otherwise common day-to-day woes into relatable tales of struggle shout-sung call and response stabs that champion boredom, laziness and social anxieties with wiry riffs and punchy bass lines (brought to you by Matt Nyce), propelled by the measured rhythms of drummer David Ramm.
Catch them live:
12/11 Seattle, WA @ Funhouse Lounge (w/ Thee Sgt. Major III, Sayonara, Wolfgang Fuck)
12/12 Portland, OR @ Spare Room (w/ Kinski, Deep Fried Boogie Band)
