Fidlar - Fidlar [12", LP]


The self-titled debut full length by FIDLAR is an in-your-face snotty skate-punk outburst of songs about drugs, booze and surfing. Sounds a bit like Wavves (same attitude) but the songs are meaner and sharper. Think of a mix of Wavves, Blink 182, Motörhead and Zeke. The opening song (and hit single) Cheap Beer perfectly captures the spirit: I. Drink. Cheap. Beer. So. What. Fuck. You.
This one was not in my best-albums-of-the-year list last year, but it probably was 2012's best party album.
