Review: The Measure (SA) - Historical Fiction
Posted on 5 March 2008 | No Comments
Originally released back in 2005 on vinyl only, The Measure (SA) in conjunction with Team Science Records re-released their album Historical Fiction on CD last year. This Brunswick, New Jersey quartet serves up DIY-spirited jangly pop-punk that has just a hint of Americana flavor. The band also features both male and female lead vocals courtesy of guitarists Mike Regrets and Lauren Measure whose sloppy (but lovable) vocals and messy ramshackle guitars are simply irresistible. Historical Fiction is the audio equivalent of walking along the boardwalk with some cotton candy and a hot dog as saltwater breeze washes over you and whomever you’re holding hands with. It could come from nowhere else but Jersey.
More recently (however) The Measure (SA) has gone through a few lineup changes but has released a split on Chunksaah and have about a million other 7” records due out soon. RIYL: Bomb The Music industry!, Plow United, Discount, etc…
