Clean Lines - Nuisance

Seattle's Clean Lines don't sound like what you picture a band from Seattle to sound like. The band is made up of musicians that have previously played in The Briefs, Circle Jerks, Geraldine Fibbers, and Boss Martians, but that doesn't define their sound, either. Their new EP, Nuisance, is four songs in eleven minutes of 70's style power pop with a slight edge to it. It's like a combination of Cheap Trick and New York Dolls. If you loved amped up power pop and glam rock, Clean Lines are going to be for you. These four songs are just straight up fun songs that are both retro and timeless. Nuisance could have come out anytime in the past fifty years and have fit in perfectly. Long live rock and roll, even though we've been led to believe it's a dying artform.
You can listen to Nuisance below. The EP is out on on Spaghetty Town Records in the US, Ghost Highway Records in Spain, and Wanda Records in Germany. For more on Clean Lines, check out the band on Instagram and Facebook.
