Neon


Neon is a four-piece punk band from Oakland, California.
This is obviously no street-punk or Youth Crew but some kind of crazy, arty punk;
 in a way it could be to punk what free jazz is to jazz... free punk ??
 

It all started with 5 songs released online in 2017 under the name
Neon is Life. Chaotic, unorganized, uncivilised, loud and dirty... 
yes Neon got all the aspects of life... of wild life!


After two years, the band finally releases the self-titled full-length Neon in November 2019 on Square One Again Records.
A bit faster than their first release but with the same vibe, the album is a nice concentration of psychedelic and colorful punk songs, always dancing and jumping on the edge of the genre, making sure to lose you far from your comfort zone.
Crass (Shaved Women), Lukrate Milk or more recently Good Throb and Warm Bodies could be quoted as influences as well as any band which tried to bring back some colors to the scene.


So yes it's pretty good but to be honest I tend to feel that 10 songs is a bit too much jumpy high pitched guitars and vocals for me, but well... it's me.



You can listen to Neon and other stuff in Rien à Faire #5.
