Snuff
There’s a Lot of It About
(Fat Wreck Chords)
4/5
There certainly is a lot of something about Snuff’s 10th studio album, There’s a Lot of It About. This album is the epitome of party punk rock. Every track here is a fresh dose of good vibes and bad intentions, and they come complete with a tasteful trumpet.
Snuff have many different influences that surface throughout the album in a way that’s apparent but not without finesse. The first three tracks are packed with fast-paced guitar and vocals indigenous to true punk. What proceeds is a dynamic variety of vocal styles, dense guitar, and dominant trumpet appearing out of left field.
“Dippy Egg,” for example, hosts the aforementioned tasty trumpet riffs accompanied by a lyric style that could be best described as listening to words lethargically running a relay race, syllables lazily passing the baton to each other as the song runs on, but in a good way.
