If It's Too Loud...

Vancouver's Night Court are quickly becoming our fast and short punk meets power pop songs. Their latest fits into that description perfectly, but "D List" may be their most punk song yet. It barrels straight through you with buzzy guitars and a chorus that shouldn't be as catchy as it is. Punk this fast and aggressive shouldn't be this catchy or fun, but once you hear "D List" you'll wonder why. On this latest single, Night Court sound like you strapped a rocket to the Ramones. Even the most strict punk purist won't find anything to complain about with "D List."

Vancouver's Night Court have a new short and sweet single in their fantastic DIY punk meets power pop sound. "Captain Caveperson" clocks in at just over a minute long of catchy, poppy greatness. The song sounds as if Guided By Voices were huge fans of The Archies, and had formed as a garage band in the 1970's. Night Court songs have always been absurdly fun, and "Captain Caveperson" is especially so. Normally we'd say that our only complaint is that the brevity of the track left us wanting to hear more, but this one is the perfect length for the song. Night Court have packed a whole lot into sixty-six seconds. Jiffy says of the band's latest single: "A lot of the lyrics I write are about how fucked up the world is and how depressed it makes me but/so for this one I wanted to inject a bit of positivity and self affirmation theory into them. In my job, like lots of jobs, I have to fix things sometimes and no matter how big or small the issue is, t...

Vancouver's Night Court started out as friends emailing each other song ideas during lockdown, and has blossomed into a full blown project. Their latest single, "Mistakes Become You," expands on 2022's Nervous Birds Too . The new song is under two minutes, but has a scope far greater than its length. It's a bouncy mini-epic, and has that lo-fi punchy indie rock sound of an artist like Guided By Voices but the giant harmonies of The Polyphonic Spree. The song is an absolute joy to listen to, and I'd wish it were longer, but that wouldn't be the Night Court way.
