Singles Club: Gooch Palms – Trackside Daze (Urinal Cake Records)
Justin Edwards: That Smith Street Band song is getting plenty of column inches but I don’t think anyone’s pointed out that the title is the best thing about it. Instead here’s the new Gooch Palms. https://soundcloud.com/thesmithstreetband/wipe-that-shit-eating-grin-off-your-punchable-face#c=43&t=0:00 Jodi Biddle: Now now. The sleeve art is also gold.
