GRMLN Goes For Adds

GRMLN is the musical project of Yoodoo Park, a 24-year-old guitarist and producer from Kyoto, Japan who spent several of his formative years studying and performing in California. His earliest recordings got the attention of Carpark Records, which released 2012’s Explore EP, 2013’s Empire LP, and 2014’s Soon Away LP. Park’s sound has evolved steadily over the course of his career, alternating between catchy pop-punk-influenced songs and more relaxed, peaceful ones with clean guitar rhythms and drowsy melodies. The band’s upcoming Discovery EP is perhaps GRMLN’s most ambitious and anthemic record to date. On it, Park veers away from his pop-punk roots and delivers a darker, more refined sound that makes full use of his commanding vocal delivery and sharp lyrics.

With an irresistible hook, vibrant production, and an upbeat message, “27 Kids” is a taste of what to expect from Discovery. The band is self-releasing the full EP in April.

“The track is an exuberant blast of power pop excellence, complete with beautifully layered “ahhs,” and “na na nas.” This brilliantly compliments lyrics which celebrate the positive political activism currently being enacted by so many young people. This one will make you think (almost) as much as it makes you bounce.” -KCRW
