***After a pretty distinct sounding debut 7-inch and LP that garnered good reviews yet still managed to fly under the radar of most listeners, Sweet Rot is pleased to present a new single by Portland, Oregon's MEERCAZ that takes the band's output to new levels. Formed by frontman MUSLIM DELGADO, Meercaz's two songs here float hazily somewhere around Gizmos/Twinkeyz/Chrome proto-punk territory that solidly nail it in the songwriting department while still maintaining an appropriate amount of guitar damage and experimentation. A perfect single, in our minds, from one of America's most underrated bands, and a teaser for the band's excellent 12-inch EP coming soon from Tic Tac Totally. Meercaz also features KYLE RAQUIPISO (ex-METH TEETH) and CLAY SILVA (ex-CLOROX GIRLS). Black vinyl.
