Bet It is the new four-song EP by Tokyo melodic punk rock trio the Floppy-Pinkies. It’s already their fourth EP, and the band has also released two albums (we covered the last one).

For me, this is one of those bands that makes me nostalgic for those cheap punk label compilations from the ’90s, where each next track could introduce you to your new favorite band. Those comps felt like treasure hunts. messy, inconsistent, but full of discovery, where the magic was in not knowing what hit you next. With their catchy, three-minute songs—highly energetic and nicely unpolished—the Floppy-Pinkies tap straight into that spirit. There’s a strong ’90s feel here, but also plenty of contemporary charm.

Bet It is out now on 10-inch and CD via Glitter Record Industry.
