Tough, rowdy, noisy and just plain raw, Liquor Store is New Jersey’s punk rock pride. Their debut LP ‘Yeah Buddy’ was a gritty affair (with a debatable cover), but the band seems to have cleaned up the edges for the better in their recent sophomore album ‘In The Garden.’ The first track "Satin Dollars" is reminiscent of Titus Andronicus with a soft touch of Blue Oyster Cult. They took their sonic noise punk to SXSW in Austin last week to play a bunch of shows (including two at Hotel Vegas Patio on 3/12 & 3/15), and they will keep touring the US until the end of the month. After that, look out for a show at their favorite Brooklyn spot: Shea Stadium of course! – Michael Haskoor (@Tweetskoor)
