Two bands from the Midwest have teamed up for a 6-song split EP by The Raging Nathans and The Reaganomics. Featuring three new songs from each group, the 7" will be a joint release between Rad Girlfriend Records and Red Scare Industries.

The Raging Nathans -- who are playing today at the livesteam event The Fest That Never Was -- released Oppositional Defiance earlier this year, and The Reaganomics released The Aging Punk at the end of 2019.

Take Lookout Records and Ramones-inspired sing-alongs, add skatepunk urgency, put it in a blender and set to crush. It’s not an even mix of all the ingredients, rather familiar fragments with a lot of unique twists and turns when … Read more

Oppositional Defiance
Rad Girlfriend Records (2020)

Boy do The Raging Nathans know how to start a record on a down note. The band plays melodic DIY pop-punk that’s of the verse-chorus-verse variety with driving rhythm to give it that extra oomph.
