Shootin Lucy – Edge of Collapse EP
May 20, 2009
The street credibility that comes out of Oakland embodies itself once again on a group of talented people, only this time, not on rappers. Shootin’ Lucy is a Punk Rock band from Oakland that has been rising up in the Bay area. Their self-titled demo contains only 6 tracks and is released on their own independent account, and while short, provides good listening music.
With vocals that at times can take the form of Street Punk type of vocals, the rest of the music generally sounds like melodic Punk with Rock ‘N’ Roll influences. Most of the tracks have steady and slower tempos, and aren’t necessarily fast paced aggressive tunes. But while not fast, the band’s melodic songs are more than enough to sustain your attention.
Shootin’ Lucy plays frequently in the Bay area, so if you can’t catch their demo, or your computer is too slow to try and play their music on MySpace, catch up with them the next time they play. If Punk Rock ‘N’ Roll is your thing, then Shootin’ Lucy will soon be your thing too.
