Check out this Punk Rock band out of Indianapolis, BOMB CATS and their newest EP, “Third Street Melody”.
The first song, right off the bat, is their album’s name “Third Street Melody” and it is catchy! This band got a lot of its punk rock influence from the likes of The Ramones and Social Distortion. What a pair of bands to get their sound from!
BOMB CATS brings out a heavy set sound of guitars, pound-heavy bass, as well as fun melodies.
Punk Rock seems to be making a comeback. We’re curious, but is Indianapolis becoming the central haven for punk bands?
What Does The Band Have To Say?
We asked their bassist/vocalist, Russ Webster, to give us some detail about their EP.
“This EP is the culmination of everything we have worked on to this point. It is both heavier and catchier than our previous work. It is more polished but also more raw than anything we have done before. We could not be more proud of this effort and we believe there is something here for everyone.”, said Russ.
“Third Street Melody is dedicated to the kinds of venues that allow bands like us the opportunity to perform: small, independent venues that care about original music from artists who do it for the love of the music.”, Russ commented.
Perhaps we were right, Indianapolis is creating a scene where electric Punk Rock bands like BOMB CATS can showcase their stuff, raw and polished. Hope the editor is reading this, we may need to book a plane ticket out to Indianapolis and check this stuff out. We might even have a chance to talk to the guitarist again, Chris Farrel, to talk more about “Third Street Melody”.
“We’re super proud that everything you hear on this record is us, playing live in a room together. That’s our sound and our songwriting.” – said their guitarist/vocalist Chris Farrell.
