Philadelphia four-piece Beach Slang, (opening for Cursive)  performed their vigorous indie-punk filled with crashing drums and blaring rhythms. Frontman James Snyder, previously of punk outfit Weston, thrashed his hair and sweat around the stage with urgency and noisy melody. Snyder’s vocal style is derivative of 90’s garage-punk but the band still sound fresh. Currently with only two 7-inches/one EP under their belt, Beach Slang are garnering more buzz in the punk scene due to their line up featuring JP Flexner (Ex-Friends), Ed McNulty (Nona, Crybaby) and their emotional and melodic racket is a live force to be reckoned with.
