2013 is just about at it’s end and the window for timely reviews of what it had to offer are shrinking into sizes that border non-existence. That being the case, Heartbreaking Bravery has decided to eschew a traditional recap and instead just post the videos (all courtesy of the site) that were recorded before the camera used to film them got too water-damaged to shoot anything beyond a short clip. Enjoy.
Eagle-eyed readers will remember this record being mentioned back in the Midwives review/stream and that the mention came with a guess. This guesswork has now been confirmed. Midnight Reruns is out today and officially stands as one of the years best. Marrying The Replacements at their most energetic with the melodic sensibilities of the most memorable 90’s powerpop and a whole lot of explosive fretwork’s a tricky formula to pull off. Luckily for everyone involved, Midnight Reruns step up and knock it out of the park on their first major at-bat. Stream it by following this link to Punknews and adjust any year-end lists accordingly.
