***Just like the high-gravity malt liquor of its namesake; HIGH ANXIETY's second album is enjoyed by the jittery, slurred, and finance deprived, under finer freeway on-ramps, in only the most discerning of ghettos across California. Camo—covered in themes beyond the drinking and purging of sugary hooch, brings listeners into the center of the band's frenetic existence. Songs like "Pizza Punx," and "One Mo' Gin" tout a side of H/A that is just plain sick of the world, while tunes such as "This Is The Life" and "Caregivers" reveal an uncompromising sensitivity that gives a nod back to classic Bay Area influentials including Hickey and Dory Tourette.

***HIGH ANXIETY doesn't take your girlfriend out to dinner, High Anxiety takes your grandmother out to lunch. They love root beer and pop rocks—but not at the same time. Their recent release entitled Let Me Get the Door for You is a twangy punk-rock-roller-coaster ride inspired by Bay Area icons Hickey, Dory Tourette and Bobby Joe Ebola. Produced by BRIAN HAMILTON of Fleshies/Sugar Mountain Studios.
