Coolidge - Condition Transmission

Coolidge was formed by former members of legendary midwest ska punk band Johnny Socko, their debut album ''Condition Transmission'' is now out on clear vinyl with bonus tracks. Thirteen tracks of intense rock with ska upstrokes and horns, with more hooks than your grandpa's tacklebox. A power pop wolf in a skanking sheep's clothing, Coolidge brings jealousy inducing high energy proficiency, with a maturity that helps the band step out from their former group's shadow and stand on its own. Replacing Johnny Socko's abject silliness with heart on its sleeve sincerity and positivity, Coolidge manages to bring the wisdom of a few more decades lived to the table while keeping it upbeat and fun.
