Friday Freebie: The Only Things - Hitlist

Every now and then we stumble on a release from a band way after it's released, sometimes a year or so after it's been released. Most times I'll let it slide and let you folks know about more current releases, but sometimes I discover something that I feel that I need to tell you about. The latest release from The Only Things is one of those ones.

Released back in May 2017, Hitlist is a blast of good old fashioned alt-rock that the universe seems to be lacking these days. It's part The Replacements, part Archers of Loaf, and part Dropkick Murphys. It's hard rock without being overly aggro and alternative without being twee. If you've been missing guitar heavy rock that just rocks, you're going to love this EP.

You can listen to "The Quiet Man" below. The latest (albeit almost a year old) release from The Only Things, Hitlist, is available now as a free download on their Bandcamp. As always, if you download this for free, at least give them a follow on Facebook.
