Minneapolis-based rockers Scrunchies pull no punches on their sophomore album Feral Coast. The band, made up of Laura Larson (Kitten Forever), Danielle Cusack (Bruise Violet), and Matt Castore (Condominium), continue to build on their post-punk meets riot grrrl meets grunge sound, while also making space to explore new territory.
As anyone who reads our “Fuzzy Meadows” column already knows, the “list” is just the beginning, and we’re always eager to add some “Further Listening” for consideration. Despite what some would have you believe, music is not a contest. We profiled many records in our “Year In Review” feature, but the fun doesn’t stop there.
Scrunchies return with Feral Coast, their second album, due out April 1st via Dirtnap Records and State Champion Records. The new album picks up where the first left off, big enormous riffs (that often serve as hooks), melodic earworms cutting through the dissonance, and a heavy pummel that grinds with wall of sound density.
The trio are set to release their sophomore album, Feral Coast, at some point in the coming future (these being as uncertain times as they come and all). While we wait, Scrunchies are sharing the record’s first single “No Home Planet” with a video, directed by William Hoben and featuring choreographer Taja Will.
