YOLKS - Get Back 7"

At this point it is safe to say that THE YOLKS are an institution in the Chicago rock n roll scene. Since their inception in 2006, they have been a force to be reckoned with, destroying party after party with their incredible live show, and releasing hit record after hit record. And 13 years later (!) the same three dudes are still at it, releasing yet another smash hit 7" record that is sure to scratch the itch for those who crave pure, unadulterated, Midwest rock n roll, or pine for the perfect punk rock party platter. The A-side, “Get Back,” might be the most punk song The Yolks have ever put out—classic Ramones worship via The Spits with just a touch of Coneheads/CCTV weirdness to round it out. The flip-side, “Vampire” changes gears completely, showing that The Yolks love groups like The Ethiopians, The Wailers, and The Pioneers just as much as they love The Kinks, The Gizmos, or Booker T and the MGs. This is what it would sound like if the Everly Brothers had tried to play sixties rocksteady songs in a style palatable to American rock n rollers,.
