Goat Rope / Killed By Florida DCxPC Live Presents, Vol. 27 split LP
Another nicely-produced live LP from DCxPC, this time a split between two bands who have a similar style of beer-drenched political punk. On the A-side, KILLED BY FLORIDA plays street punk with some blastbeats and occasional Jello Biafra-style banter. I particularly enjoyed the parts where they drag Tucker Carlson and Ron DeSantis. On the flipside is GOAT ROPE, who lean a little more into a ’90s skate punk vibe with a fairly odd mix of vocal styles ranging from deep growls to melodic singing. They also end with a cover of BEASTIE BOYS’ “Sabotage.” Overall, I can’t knock it too much. While none of this is really my style, it definitely sounds like everyone involved had a fun time at these shows, and at the end of the day, that’s all that really matters.
