Anytime a band is said to have The Feelies, Wipers, Wire, and early Flying Nun as influences, I tend to give that band an earnest listen. False Tracks (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) have been around for over 7 years, but this is their first LP. It will come out on Strange Mono (also based in Philadelphia).

I was watching a Hüsker Dü documentary and then listened to this band. I felt a similar energy and melodicism to not only Grant Hart/Hüsker Dü but also The Gotobeds and Mission of Burma.

I asked one of the band members if they recommended any good listens and Jamie mentioned Peter Ivers. I found this release on the ever-cool label RVNG Intl.
