Crusades

PUNK
'Crusades' is the new album from Minneapolis-based, THE PLASTIC CONSTELLATIONS.
TPC have been together for over a decade, yet are still all in their early 20s! They have not missed a weekly rehearsal for over ten years - now that's tight!
The age overlap gives TPC their edge, producing a sharp fist-in-the-air fusion of exuberant, anthemic punk pop and faux-stadium rock, matched with the incredible angular chops of seasoned pros.
Boy geniuses, TPC released their first album while still at high school. They quickly attracted a large following with their infectious live shows. Some key local musos have said of them: SLUG, ATMOSPHERE "This city is not big enough to hold their energy" ... HAR MAR SUPERSTAR "They are one of the scene's brightest hopes. Blazing live shows, killer hooks"
Lacking any sense of pretension whatsoever, the band draws from a diverse range of influences, from the post-punk attack of FUGAZI to the dance-y rhythm of AT THE DRIVE IN.
Licensed to ROGUE RECORDS, local edition has an exclusive rocking bonus live video clip!
PITCHFORK MEDIA 8.5/10 "TPC nail their bludgeoning, super-anthemic rock choruses with an energy infectious enough to directly affect your blood flow"... EXCLAIM! "The kind of band a more bloated major-manicured act fears in the opening slot of a show - TPC would blow them away as easily as target practice on a beached whale"... TREBLE ZINE "A rather unique listen. Semi-epic, guitar-driven math-rock fist-pumpers"... TRANSWORLD SKATEBOARDING "Melodic and atonal; hard and full of harmonies; ugly and beautiful; I love this album".
