The first proper full length from Smirk could very well be the soundtrack to a Decline pt. IV, with tracks like \"Living in Hell\" and \"Hopeless\" delivered for a whole new generation of latchkey kids. 'Material' follows 2021's 100% TOTAL PUNK 'EP' and 2020's 'LP', which collected the first two cassettes-de-quarantine that began Nick Vicario's run as Smirk. If you've worn out your copies of those releases, then 'Material' needs no further explanation. But if you're wondering where the magic is - let's start with pure, quality songwriting. Vicario and his revolving cast of Smirk players have really done it this time. It's punk, California, paranoia, guitars, rhythm, and a sense of humor-slash-purpose joining forces to combat reality in the truest sense. Smirk have produced an impressive punk encapsulation of the times across the web of sound on 'Material'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2540603189\/size=small\/bgcol=333333\/linkcol=0f91ff\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003eMaterial by Smirk\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"credits-label\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-credits\"\u003ereleased November 18, 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerformed and recorded by Nick Vicario.\u003cbr\u003eMixed and mastered by Andrew Oswald.\u003cbr\u003eArt by Sean Powell.\u003cbr\u003eArt and layout by Michael Bingham.\u003cbr\u003eSmirk logo by Smoking Room.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVocals and lyrics on \"Revenge\" by Iphigenia Foie.\u003cbr\u003eRhythm guitar on \"Heathen Means\" by Sean Powell.\u003cbr\u003eLyrics on \"Heathen Means\" by Nick Vicario and Emily Reed.\u003cbr\u003eRhythm guitar on \"Living in Hell\" by Bee Wright.\u003cbr\u003eAdditional vocals and lyrics on \"Hopeless\" \u0026amp; \"At the Pantomime\" by Andy Place.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Feel It Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67944747794708,"sku":"pzb1793382348012","price":16.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/0932\/6356\/files\/smirk---material-yellow-vinyl-new-lp_1.jpg?v=1793382354","url":"https:\/\/seasonal-reset-style.shop\/products\/smirk-material-yellow-vinyl-new-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
