Canadian Rifle have a pummeling new 3 song EP out on Rad Girlfriend Records. For almost 20 years, the Chicago punk outfit have been consistently releasing their own unique brand of punishing punk rock on the best labels around, finally finding a home for their new 7. The songs are urgent, melodic and heavy, filled with both confidence and desperation. The record sounds like a runaway freight train that could derail at any time, but somehow manages to stay roughly on the tracks. The lyrical content is somewhat abstract, touching on the bleakness of shallow human interaction, hanging on by a self-inflicted thread, running on fumes, and trying to move forward from mistakes and frames of mind that carry the behavior of skirting the edge that most would more than likely not venture into. FFO: Dillinger 4, Off With Their Heads, Hot Water Music
