Cape Crush ft. Good June: “Apple at the Aggy”
Three bands, one cup! Cape Crush, Good June, and Impossible Dog team up for a three-way split called Good Dogs Wear Capes. Which is a title that would make even more sense if the release was a four-way split, with the fourth band called Wear & Tear or something. But as a writer who regularly crafts nonsense titles for all sorts of articles and features, I respect the hustle. Our highlighted track “Apple At The Aggy” is a Cape Crush contribution, flashing crunchy emo pop progressions, a sparkling refrain, and two dudes named Evan on “gang vocals.” Every Evan, all the time, everywhere.
