Uptempo вЂњ1:11вЂќ alternates between chugging propulsion and a lunging bass line-driven pace. вЂњAll I NeedвЂќ thrashes with choppy guitar licks, a romping bass line, and hard-smacked drum beat and cymbals, and includes a tuneful chorus section filled with retro harmonies. The title track and album opener is a bright spirit-boosting blast, and this exhilarating feeling lasts through the whole record. The band mix classic/hard rock grit with pop melodies with pop-punk intensity for a vibrant sound that fuses old-school with the new. Typhoid RosieвЂ™s dynamic alternative/punk rock offers plenty of hooks, and no matter how you identify, with these memorable feminist anthems ringing loudly in your ears, youвЂ™ll feel ready to take on the world. Recorded remotely at home in quarantine during the pandemic (with the exception of drums and bass, which were recorded at Cannon Found Soundation in Brooklyn), the bandвЂ™s fourth album shows them at the peak of their powers. Queen of Swords was mixed and mastered by Jesse Cannon, and produced and arranged by Phil Wartell, with album artwork, layout, and design by Paul Kepple of Headcase Designs. Rosie Rebel is joined by Jeff Crews (lead guitar), Matthew Van Ernest (bass), and Phil Wartell (drums, rhythm guitar, bass) as Typhoid Rosie, and the unit also enlisted several guest musicians to chime in on specific tracks: Coolie Ranx (Pilfers), Becky Lynn Blanca (Penny Matches), Jay Prozac (The Prozacs), and Jenny Whiskey and Rob George, both of Hub City Stompers. The LP is rousing and empowering, with frontwoman Rosie RebelвЂ™s thought-provoking lyrics touching upon themes of self-love, self-worth, and not taking BS from anyone. The LP officially releases on Friday, August 13th. Released via Tiny Engines, the record got a proper release the following month.Big Takeover is pleased to host the premiere of Queen Of Swords today, the new album from Brooklyn, NYвЂ™s Typhoid Rosie. The resulting Prison on a Hill was issued for a limited one-week run ahead of schedule to help cover the funeral costs for guitarist Phil Haggerty, who passed away suddenly on August 12.

The band finished tracking the full-length follow-up to First Day Back in early 2019, with plans to release the album later that September. Somos went on a brief hiatus shortly thereafter to concentrate on day jobs and social activism, but they re-emerged in late 2017 with a pair of singles. The album, First Day Back, was released in early 2016 to positive reviews.

Signing with Hopeless Records for the release, the band once again refined their sound, this time taking in new production techniques and a wider variety of influences. that year and into 2015, the group eventually reentered the studio to record what would be their sophomore album. After a hefty touring schedule across the U.S.

Released the following year, Temple of Plenty saw the band fine-tune their mix of indie rock, pop-punk, and post-hardcore. Recording their four-track demo EP at San Fran's Panda Studios in May 2012 with the addition of Justin Hahn on guitar, the group eventually decided to move back to their home state of Massachusetts, settling in Boston.ДЄfter hearing their demo, label Tiny Engines contacted them about the possibility of releasing more material, and in the summer of 2013, Somos headed to Cannon Found Soundation Studios in Union City, New Jersey, with producer Jesse Cannon ( Saves the Day, the Cure, the Menzingers) to record their debut album. Two years later, the pair took the idea of Somos as a band to San Francisco - a city that would seemingly be a perfect fit for their mix of post-hardcore and '90s-inspired indie rock - adding drummer Evan Degas to the lineup. After a jam session with vocalist and bass player Mike Fiorentino, the group decided to go their own ways after high school, with Haggerty keeping in close contact with Fiorentino. Originally conceived in 2009 when guitarist Phil Haggerty was talking with a high school friend about how their musical tastes had changed from just listening to and playing hardcore to a more diverse mix of genres, they eventually decided that they should form a new band that reflected these changes.

A diverse and genre-refining quartet from Massachusetts, Somos emerged in 2012 with a sound that combined elements of pop-punk, emo, post-hardcore, and indie rock.
