Song of the Day - October 17, 2005

The Cops are here! There may have been a time in your life when you didn't want to hear this, but that time has passed. The Cops are another great band out of Seattle that are steeped in the sounds of The Clash, Kinks, and The Jam. The Cops have taken that British sound and distorted it by the influence of the sound of Seattle. The end result is an excellent EP called Why Kids Go Wrong. Their first track "Working The Wall" is a definite standout and my song of the day. There are definite Clash influences at work here plus a throwback to 70's era bands. The song is just plain infectious. I love it! Click here to listen. To enjoy the rest of their EP click on the link Why Kids Go Wrong. I especially enjoyed the track "Don't Take It Personal, Dave."
