"I wanna be with the rock n' roll girl!"
Those are the words that I think of when I think of the Muffs, because that rock & roll girl sounds so cool! I first heard that "Rock & Roll Girl" song from punk/pop group the Muffs, as she sang on their The Beat cover via Freedom of Choice compilation in 1992 (the song would later be compiled on 2000's Hamburger).
The Muffs are back, their first record in ten years, called Whoop Dee Doo, out on July 29, 2014, on Burger Records. At the moment you can hear their first new single called "Up And Down Around" on soundcloud.com. It's good to hear singer Kim Shattuck's unique vocals once again on something new.
With "Up And Down Around," you do hear that tight melodies that the Muffs are known for... and even sounds like it's one of those "one-take" sessions (particularly with hearing Shattuck saying "okay" right before recording the song).
It's all very exciting news, hopefully we'll see the Muffs doing more of a national tour, in the meantime they are 'up and down around' California:
