RVIVR- S/T

RVIVR hail from Olympia (seriously, the best music scene going right now) and play a very fine-tuned brand of pop-punk. Lots of buildups and breakdowns, fantastic guitar interplay and great female-male vocal harmonies. Very 90's sounding yet this avoids the cheese of bands like NOFX or Screeching Weasel (don't get me wrong!) and goes more for the introspective sound of Jawbreaker or Foolish-era Superchunk. Definitely good for bringing you up when you're so far down in the dumps all you can see is a collection of empty slurpee cups and empty doritos bags... cough
