Brooklyn’s Perfect 100 delivers four tracks of speaker-blowing guitar work that somehow never buries Andrew Madore’s knack for melody. Their self-titled debut EP balances massive, blown-out distortion with surprisingly sweet hooks—creating the kind of beautiful noise that calls to mind prime Dinosaur Jr.

Madore’s lyrics—often stretched out over fuzzed-out chords—tackle dependency and alcoholism with refreshing honesty, while Justin Pizzoferrato’s production ensures every crunchy riff punches through. It’s a familiar formula, but executed with enough conviction to make you forget you’ve heard it before.

Loud, catchy alt rock, out now on bloody knuckles.
