Musical style


The band have been categorised as soft rock,[3] pop rock,[8][9] hardcore punk,[3][8][10] and melodic hardcore.[2][11][12] Their music often incorporates elements of surf rock, grunge,[13] alternative rock[1] and pop.[14]

Their 2013 demo Xtra Raw was described by Kerrang! as a "scrappy, lo-fi bundle of punk", while their subsequent material was more melodic.[15] Revolver magazine described the band's music as a "curve ball", due to its relationship to the hardcore scene, despite also including "heartfelt saxophone", "strummy acoustic guitar[s]" and "an overwhelming amount of positivity",[3] and in another article as "about as catchy and fun as catchy and fun get".[16] In an article for Clash, writer Robin Murray described their music as "between a rough-around-the-edges Lemonheads with Elvis Costello vocal melodies".[17]

Many of the tracks on the band's 2019 album Pretty Buff were written about the death of Tripp's dog.[18]

They cited influences including The Lemonheads, The Replacements, The Feelies,[19] the Bad Brains, Violent Femmes and Greg Sage.[17]
