NEW ALBUM, "TEN SONGS, TEN YEARS" OUT MAY 29 ON BRIGHT & BARROW RECORDS! GET IT HERE: http://tinyurl.com/c3dy6lu

Influenced by the likes of pop-punk heavyweights such as The Queers and The Methadones - not to mention the sweet sounds of legends like Buddy Holly and Richie Valens - The Scutches has been the primary songwriting vehicle for Vincenzo Hoffer (guitar, bass, vocals) and Rich da Silva (drums, backup vocals) over the course of the last decade.

Ten Songs, Ten Years is an virtual pop-punk classic in every way; from the instantly memorable choruses and undeniably infectious harmonies to the propulsive rhythm section that pushes along the blissful power-chord buzz of the guitars. The lyrics cover standard themes of love and heartbreak and just about everything in between, but Hoffer's clever songwriting is delivered with just the right combination of sincerity and bite, keeping things interesting and fun throughout the album's 26 minute run time.

There's nothing complicated about Ten Songs, Ten Years but that won't keep this pop-punk gem it from finding a permanent spot in your collection next to other great records from the genre's forefathers and contemporaries alike.
