TOP NACHOS, “Frens”
Sure they have a fun name and fun live shows and their band photos are splattered in nacho sauce – but I’m gonna make a pitch here that Top Nachos are some of the best songwriters in the underground music scene. “Frens” is on “Best of BTR Vol 1” by King Pizza Records. The start is ragged grunge influence, then it’s garage style fun and adrenalin, momentum, moving into into classic rock and punk sounds. The chorus is just so phenomenal – the primary reason that Holy Crap Records Podcast exists – because this couldn’t be catchier: “Your friends are watching, your friends are watching what you do! Your friends are watching, your friends are watching what you say!” So gold. Just the most massive sing-along chorus.
