Ah, the late 90’s. What a decade to be alive for true rock lurvers! A time filled with gritty, grungy, hardcore, sloppy yet wonderful alternative rock music. Formed in 1987, hardcore influenced NYC band Supertouch release three years later their debut album “The Earth is Flat”. Their musical style hinted at legends such as Mudhoney, Melvins, and Bad Brains, but with their own sonic spin and a F-You demeanor retained from the good old punk days. As it happens in rock’n’roll, they broke up after that debut, which slowly became a cult record among many rock music connoisseurs. Twenty years later, the band is reuniting, releasing a new EP entitled “Lost My Way,” which really sounded as if time had stopped. Although they haven’t released new music since “Lost My Way”, Supertouch is still killing it live, and will hit St. Vitus on January 19th. Check out their EP title-track streaming below. – Jocelyn Huggler
