The Nashville based punk duo Snõõper is back, and their new album, Super Snõõper is the number one punk/garage-rock album you NEED to listen to this summer!
While the duo (made up of Blair Tramel and Connor Cummins) has been putting out music since 2020, Super Snõõper is the perfect culmination of their work so far, and a sneak peak into everything the band is capable of for the future. Blair Tramel’s vocals are remnant of that iconic 90s riot grrrl era, but of course, in her own unique style. Tramel’s voice isn’t the only similarity the duo shares with riot grrrl, their melodies reflect that unpolished-in-the-best-way sound that many punk bands tout. It should also be noted that this sound is entirely intentional, as Cummins and Tramel clearly demonstrate a mastery over their instruments. The duo are also excellent lyricists, with songs such as “Pod” addressing societal ills with lines such as “Who see’s society’s infection?” This is also Snõõper’s first official full-length album, and given that they’ve already knocked it out of the park with album one, we can’t imagine how they can go up from here (but we know they will).
Super Snõõper provides an exciting listen from start to finish, and it also provides the perfect soundtrack for screaming into your pillow or going to one of those garages where you can pay to smash things against walls. (You know what we’re talking about, right?). The album fills a noise-rock sized hole that seems to have been missing (or at the least, uncommon) from this decade of music. Fans of Le Tigre, Mommy Long Legs, and Hole will surely find a track they love on Super Snõõper.
This album definitely gets a 4 boob rating!
Be sure to listen to Super Snõõper when it drops on July 14th.
