Indie Noise Pop

New Orleans’ Caddywhompus is one of my favorite active bands. They’re just doing everything right. They have catchy songs, a mind blowing live show, innovative guitar sounds, interesting time signatures, full sounding noise parts……

Caddywhompus - The Weight
Out Saturday, May 7th on Community Records and Chinquapin Records.
(release show)
We’ve been working on these songs for over a year now and we’ve been working on these recordings for the better part of this past year. I’m really excited to finally share what we’ve done. As always, the album will be available for free download on both labels’ websites. On the other hand, we just got a whole bunch of merch in preparation for our summer touring schedule (to be released as soon as it’s all confirmed). So catch us at a show or check out either of the labels’ online stores to grab: new tee shirts, silk screened posters, patches, buttons, as well as previously released albums.
Here’s the tracklist for The Weight:
1 - The Weight
2 - Age of Wild Spirits
3 - The Others
4 - The Focus
