Released on Bad Paintings as part of the 'Wedding Dress' split LP in 2013
"The first four tracks are from Fawn Spots, who are a razor edged, lightning fast trio, proudly displaying their love of early SST bands (Black Flag, Meat Puppets, Husker Du) and a very British approach to punk. This isn't a lumpen pastiche (a la the Cribs or The Libertines toward the end), this is homage, and there's never anything wrong with that.
Elements of college rock and the burgeoning mid-80s indie scene are evident too; opener 'Tailor Made' echoing The Replacements or R.E.M. (before they binned off Bill Berry and started sucking metaphorical balls). 'National Anthem' sounds like a Fugazi demo, all menancing guitar tonals and rhythmic beat, before a descent into part Minor Threat, part Bad Brains thrash"
