Perhaps I missed the announcement, but I don’t think Total Punk made much noise about this new Circulators release. Which is odd, because The Circulators are one of the most hypeworthy bands currently flying the flag for classic punk. Their demo landed in my top 10 releases of 2023, and their official debut cracked my top 5 of 2024. So naturally, I was pretty excited to discover this new 7″ on my doorstep.

Pointless Games delivers two brand-new Circulators originals, both excellent, alongside a rippin’ cover of Teengenerate’s My G.T.O., which is about as solid a song choice as punk rock gets. The whole thing scratches a very particular itch. You know the one. The spot on your back you can never quite reach until suddenly, somehow, you can. Maybe that’s a gross analogy, but The Circulators make punk that is both filthy and ridiculously catchy, so it feels appropriate enough.

The label promises a perfect snot-to-pop ratio and carries the full Total Punk seal of approval.

I’ve tested the product. The label isn’t lying.
