Warm Hearts, Cold Hands (GRAY VINYL) [Vinyl]

A minute or so into "PunkORama 30", the opening song on Warm Hearts, Cold Hands, Save Ends slugs their listeners in the face with a circle pit-worthy charge into the first verse of their first full-length. It's a startling and exciting signal that Save Ends has applied a punk-rock punch to its pop sensibility. Warm Hearts, Cold Hands follows the energetic trajectory set by this opening track. And that's what makes Save Ends' first full-length so remarkable—its ability to connect with its listeners, draw them in with delicious melodies, and punch them in the gut. The album was recorded by Jay Maas of Defeater (Title Fight, Transit, Polar Bear Club) in the Spring of 2013.
