The Whiffs - "On the Boulevard"

Image
In October we gushed about "Shakin All Over," the latest song from The Whiffs. Right now they have a new single, "On the Boulevard." As much as we loved "Shakin All Over," the latest song might have us completely obsessed. "On the Boulevard" is a near perfect slice of old school power pop mixed with garage rock. It's like they somehow found a way to mix Big Star with The Box Tops. This is the kind of rock 'n' roll that just doesn't get made any more. If the press release had said that this was a lost recording from an obscure, forgotten 60's band, you wouldn't question that at all. The Whiffs might end up being your new favorite band by this time next year. You can listen to "On the Boulevard" below. Another Whiff , the new album from The Whiffs, will be out December 6 on DIG! Records. You can order your copy here . For more on The Whiffs, check them out on Facebook . The Whiffs - Another Whiff - DIG009 by D...

The Whiffs - "Shakin All Over"

When you see that there's a band called The Whiffs with an EP called Take a Whiff  and an upcoming album called Another Whiff , you're going to expect Blink 182 style bratty pop punk about farts. Kansas City's The Whiffs will shock you with their sound. Their latest single, "Shakin All Over" is 1970's/Big Star style power pop. It's filled with gorgeous three part harmonies, huge guitar riffs, and the catchiest choruses you could possibly imagine. Sure, there is still some punk edge in there, but "Shakin All Over" is more like solo Paul Westerberg than Sorry Ma, I Forgot to Take Out the Trash. You can listen to "Shakin All Over" below. Another Whiff , the upcoming album from The Whiffs, will be out December 6 on Dig! Records. You can pre-order it here . For more on The Whiffs, check them out on Facebook . Upcoming tour dates with The Get Up Kids are below the song. DIG009 - The Whiffs - Another Whiff by DIG! Records Nov. 13  Denv...
