1-2-3-4! If you like your punk rock with plenty of buzzsaw guitars, saccharine melodies and tons of energy, then Chicago’s Capgun Heroes have got you covered on their debut full-length! Throughout the dozen songs that make up ‘Last Call For Adderall’, they don’t exactly hide the fact that they worship at the altar of the Ramones, Screeching Weasel and Riverdales to name but a few. But Capgun Heroes bang out these tunes with so much enthusiasm that it goes a long way.

Opener ‘Back It Up’ and ‘Wanna Go’ are straight up, unadulterated Ramonescore songs, ‘Operation Chaos’ sees them heading for Lillingtons territory and ‘’ . It’s nothing you haven’t heard before and the vocal harmonies aren’t always as airtight as you’d like them to be. But honestly, it doesn’t take away from the fact that Capgun Heroes delivered a fun debut with ‘Last Call For Adderall’.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
