In yet another example of just how anti-cool I am, I only happened across the music of Latterman very recently and promptly found out that they just broke up. Fuckin' bummer. The band (from Huntington, Long Island, New York) played rough but melodic pop-punk that would sit nicely in your collection alongside records from Dillinger Four, Hot Water Music, The Lawrence Arms, etc... Their final album We Are Still Alive is full of catchy but gritty pop-punk anthems that I can imagine bunches of sweaty kids crammed into a VFW singing/screaming along to. A great record from a band that I (sadly) discovered a little too late. We Are Still Alive is available on CD from Deep Elm or on vinyl from No Idea.
