Debt Neglector - The Kids Are Pissed

B: Alright kiddos, at first i was unsure of where to start. I was tempted to let you pick, but then i saw this and i knew it was perfect. 

E: is that a picture disc loose in a vinyl envelope? 

B: yep, a proper 1 sided Punk EP to boot. It's 2018, Trump is a gigantic embarrassment, our country is a global joke, and we're currently looking back from 5 dystopian years later. Biden documents, or something. 

Now before you get offended and try to defend any of it, fuck off. Don't care about your opinion. Would we still have some of the same problems if we hadn't had Truck Nutz for President? Yes, he didn't create most of them, he just intentionally made them as openly terrible as possible. 

More recently Taylor Momsen described how the children lost their minds with Tom Morello as backup, but i think Debt Neglector says it better back then. The Kids Are Pissed. They should be, insulin is not expensive to manufacture, and neither are records for that matter. Yet here we are with some of the best socially relevant Punk Rock in decades coming from a band from Orlando, Florida. 

Let that sink in, this band is from Florida. How embarrassing does the state of the nation have to be that a voice of reason pipes up from Florida? I'm kidding of course, quite a lot of non-psychopaths live and vote in Florida, they're just gerrymandered to oblivion like all the rest of us.

Again, if you're offended by my opinion then i suggest you don't understand how opinions work. They aren't magically delicious just because they're mine, i'm just willing to openly hyperbolize them to make a point. That's Punk. 

S: ok, this is really good. 

B: i know that. I mean it's 90s style Smart Punk, as opposed to 80s style beligerantly drunk Punk, which i think i also have in this batch for comparison, but yes it's fantastic. You don't have to try to like this, it's Descendants style likeable as opposed to say NOFX obnoxious style likeable. I only point it out because of the fair bit of highly refined acquired taste lurking around the corner, but every 5-star meal deserves an appropriate appetizer. It's not soaked in butter or sugar but it's also not mired in a web of complicated flavors, it's straight to the point and almost magical in its honest simplicity. I highly recommend pointing your youtubamascope or your spotificator in the direction of Debt Neglector, even if only to say "see? Not everyone from Florida is a crocodile wrestler who uses gasoline as both a cologne and an ice cream topping." 

C: it's going to get worse, isn't it? 

B: much. But, i promised to ease into it. Are you displeased? 

E: no, but you keep foreshadowing. How- 

B: great news! Skip's here, and speaking like a true editor. It'll be as much a surprise for me as for everyone. You kids wanna shuffle the pack to ensure randomness? 

S: no, i think we'll just go along for the ride, seeing as we haven't all been in the same room all together for quite a while. 

B: whatever floats your boat. Hopefully i'll see you in the morning, but i gotta go beddy night like i'll see you in the late afternoon regardless. Either way Samara Lubelski is a pretty interesting name....
