Emo/post-rock group Lakes have released their latest single, “Tie Dye.”
The track will appear on the recently announced LP Elysian Skies due 28 April from Big Scary Monsters. Vocalist Roberto Cappellina describes the song:“Although this is essentially a three minute pop song, sonically it’s probably the most ambitious song we’ve recorded; from the retro sounding 70s acoustic guitars, to the double-bass. The song is about the fight to be present, and being grateful for those around you who accept you for your flaws.”
Bad Dad (occasionally called Ed) has been on the periphery of the punk and punk-adjacent scene for over twenty years. While many contributors to this site have musical experience and talent, Ed’s musical claim to fame comes from his time in arguably the most punk rock Blockbuster Video district in NJ where he worked alongside members of Blanks 77, Best Hit TV and Brian Fallon. He is more than just an awful father to his 2 daughters, he is also a dreadful husband, a subpar writer, a terrible dresser and has a severe deficiency in all things talent… but hey, at least he’s self-aware, amirite?
