Album Notes

..."DiPippo and Simonds individually mention influences such as Sleater-Kinney, Leonard Cohen, The Beatles and The Melvins, and describe Friends of Yours sound as "lyrical soul grunge."
'Whatever Happens' is a highlight of the new EP, with spidery electric guitar riding on a punchy post punk dance beat and a chorus that makes awesome use of roaring dissonant chords.
'South Dakota' is also powerful, a jittery song that starts with a pounding drum intro. 'if you've got something on your chest, baby you can tell me, you can tell me,' Simonds sings while slashing power chords out on her guitar, repeating the last phrase and trailing off in a possessed whisper as if in a spooky trance.
Friends of Yours decided to add some minimum bass for the EP (played by DiPippo) but at live shows they keep it to a twosome. 'We do love being a duo,' he said. 'The more members you have in a band, the more exponentially complicated it gets.'
'We get lots of comments pertaining to how impressed people are by how much sound just two people can make," said Simonds."...
