A new grungy-punk like band called Minor Rockstar just dropped their debut EP titled “Wasted” and it is available on all digital networks now through Thumper Punk Records. They have a really unique moody yet melodic sound that would have fit comfortably on any rock radio FM dial throughout the 90’s but not so drenched in nostalgia that they don’t fit in here in 2023. Imagine Superheaven, Balance & Composure, Off Road Minivan, Weezer, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains in a blender and you’ll get a feel for the sound you’re about to encounter. Give these guys a listen and make sure to throw some support their way. You can listen to the song “Wasted” in lyric video form right below this message. Great stuff!
July 26, 2023, Santa Cruz, California. Thumper Punk Records is honored to introduce SoCal based Minor Rockstar, and announce the release of their five song Wasted EP. Songs from the heart. Songs of passion and struggle. Songs of everyday Americana, written and performed by Landon Cripe and friends. Minor Rockstar’s unique 90s alternative sound refreshingly combines elements of Weezer and Husker Du (Warehouse era), with a dollop of Ramonescore.
