There’s a reason people on the internet went nut-nut for it. S/T is an album you’ll want to leave on repeat due to its runtime, and it’s bound to show up on numerous year-end lists come December. The album is tight and crunchy, and songs like “2 Much Of A Good Thing,” “Holding In A Cough,” and “RAV4” sound just as good with the windows down in your car as they do on your shitty iPhone speakers while you get drunk in your friend’s kitchen. Not a riff is wasted, and every chorus HITS. Every song adheres to the Celebration Rock-certified Nothing-But-Bangers rule because at 18 minutes, there isn’t any time for fucking around. Personally, I hear Mark Hoppus if he grew up on Guided By Voices instead of NOFX. Others maybe Jeff Rosenstock, PUP, or Weezer. It’s a tightly packed clown car of hooks that sound so familiar yet you can’t quite put your finger on it. S/T (or Self-Titled but not Liquid Mike) is an 11-song, 18-minute record of ripping and carefree power pop. The record kinda came out of nowhere all because one dude said he liked it, which in turn led to people on social media sharing it because they all agreed: Liquid Mike fucking rule. Major music sites weren’t writing about it. And that’s the thing about Liquid Mike’s S/T. If an album isn’t covered by one of your major music sites, most likely you’re going to miss it. Liquid Mike who are you.įrom there, the word about Liquid Mike’s music spread in a very organic, word-of-mouth way, which is simply not a thing that happens a lot anymore. tell him he has album of the year-tier stuff here.
