Listen to Beach Slang’s “We Are Nothing,” from the band’s second EP this year
This past May, Philadelphia’s Beach Slang released its debut EP, Who Would Ever Want Something So Broken?, on Dead Broke Records, and the punk scene quickly took to buzzing about the band. Though Beach Slang’s members had all earned their stripes playing in a variety of other punk bands–most notably vocalist James Snyder, who sang in bratty pop-punk unit Weston–the band galvanized fans by offering up four summer anthems right as the season was about to kick into gear. After signing to Tiny Engines, Beach Slang announced its second four-song EP for the year, one a bit more suited for fall, Cheap Thrills On A Dead End Street.
