Yokohama Hooks / Turn On

Tic Tac Totally

Debut 7-inch (not counting their split 7" with the Flip-Tops) from Spokane’s YOKOHAMA HOOKS. The Hooks stick you with their angular and medium paced punk rock stabbings, conjuring delusions of a less bleak/female fronted Daily Void. At least in terms of plain old pure driven intent; from there, YH take it away. The two originals on this record stand firm in the grooves. These are the kind of punk rock songs that just exude a royal "fuck off" to any weathering the hands of time may throw at it. The cover of Bloodstains on the flip is also a nice reference, putting this 7-inch right at the scene of the crime. Excellently recorded/good production.
