Their sound has some pretty serious grunge roots while still being accessible as hell. Think Babes in Toyland meets Cake Like. "Oddie Moore," one of the newer songs on Ugly Pop EP, is a lighter ready power ballad, albeit with in your face choppy vocals. "Cosmetic Skull" is an ultra-poppy keyboard ballad, more like a Sia song (or at least, what I'm mostly sure Sia sounds like.) "Alabama Movies" is my favorite, and fits more traditionally in the loud/quiet/loud tradition of my favorite 90s alternative. Loud screaming, distorted as fuck guitars, dual vocals... it's pretty much a perfect anthem.
Ugly Pop EP is available for free via Bandcamp. For some more information on Skating Polly, head on over to their website.
These guys are absolutely amazing, and you'd be crazy to party anywhere else in the city. I would highly recommend these venues in San Francisco to anyone. It's elegant, affordable, and delicious. You really get bang for your buck there! And the service is top-notch.
