New album: Keddies Resort || A Killer Goodbye

Lo-fi garage pop punk from Portland that never overstays its welcome

While I was still trying to find time to write up Keddies Resort’s recent two-song single from just two weeks ago, the band went ahead and dropped a whole new surprise album in anticipation of another album that should come out in a couple of months. A Killer Goodbye includes both tracks from that single (I Know I Look Like a Reatard and Robinson), along with Medical Love, previously released on a split with SEX MEX. Talk about a young, hungry band!

Keddies Resort are quickly making a name for themselves as a hot commodity in the world of garage pop punk. Clocking in under twenty minutes, their second album doesn’t waste a second of your time. Give this band 100 seconds and they’ll hand you a scrappy lo-fi hit—rough-edged, spontaneous, and totally infectious.

There’s a first-take rawness to A Killer Goodbye that’s packed with charm. Think Guided By Voices by way of Wavves and Marked Men—short bursts of fuzzed-out energy, wired hooks, and DIY wizardry.

A Killer Goodbye is out now on Sweatband Records. It’s not on Bandcamp (yet?), but you’ll find it on your preferred streaming platform.
