“Sure, this will be a controversial superlative, but fuck it, Im going out on a limb and declaring right now: Downtown Boys are currently the best active punk band in the United States.
I dont make such statements carelessly.
Providence, Rhode Islands Downtown Boys may not be a household name, even in most punk houses, but they should be. The six-piece utilizes highly danceable manic punk blasts as a soapbox for their confrontational but heartfelt radical political screeds. The self-billed bilingual political sax dance punk party draws many influences together to create something that sounds familiar enough to pull you onto its frantic wavelength, but refreshing enough to keep you there. One might detect hints of The Fall, Bikini Kill, The Contortions, and The Ex, as much as the obvious comparison, X Ray Spex, who Downtown Boys share more in common with sonically than simply a saxophone and female singer.”
