Beach Slang - A Loud Bash of Teenage Feelings (CD)

N/A

Beach Slang's second full-length is a crash-and-thunder collection of songs about what it takes to keep yourself going, to make it through the rest of the night - hell, through the rest of your youth - and beyond. Frontman James Alex wrote much of A Loud Bash Of Teenage Feelings on their first album's support tour, during which he spent a lot of time with the kids who'€™d picked up the record.

"€œA lot of the songs [on Loud Bash] are the stories of the kids who got turned on to Beach Slang by the first album,"€ says Alex. "€œThey'€™re autobiographical, too, but kind of at a remove - I'm not that young kid anymore, but I used to be. You know how it is; rock and roll is a new crop of 15-year-olds picking up guitars every year and having at it. There was something really cool about documenting someone else'€™s life, but seeing myself in it. I suppose that'€™s why we connect. We'€™re all kind of one big gang."€
