The Vindictives

Hypno-Punko

Coldfront

That distinctive Vindictive sound, that distinctive Joey Vindictive sneer (a little snarl and a lot of sarcasm), that definite sense that something is not right here… Wonderful song titles such as “Medication Time” and the catchy, but highly disturbing (and kinda catchy) repetition on many songs gives this album that Hypno-Punko feel. What is this? Entertainment?!?!? Whoa, some craziness. Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy punk rock.
