Big Ups

big-ups-at-shea

Brooklyn's Big Ups make music fit for the sweatiest, most teeth kicking punk shows. Brimming with DIY enthusiasm, it's obvious that they would curate a list that is loaded with beer can-crushing bangers from notable former Shea du Jours such as Double Dagger and FIDLAR. But as this mix unfolds, prepare to be surprised as you learn about the more other-worldly tastes of these boys, as you are catapulted into the atmosphere with little warning. Deep space jams from veteran astronauts Noveller and Lichens prepare you well for the epic 30-minute closing track (a full performance by LA's Lucky Dragons) but this a raucous journey from the mosh pit to the outer limits of the galaxy with pitstops just about everywhere in between. -AR
