Description:
"Exit Smiles" is a raw, high-energy Vinyl Maxi from Cheap Time, released by the renowned underground label In The Red. On this record, the band channels a fiercely melodic mix of garage punk, power pop and lo-fi rock: buzzing guitars, nervy bass lines and sharp hooks collide with a rough, saturated sound that feels immediate and unpolished in the best way. The songs move quickly, combining short, punchy structures with catchy choruses and a relentless drive that makes this maxi perfect for loud spins on a turntable.
Cheap Time is known for their stripped-down, hook-laden approach, rooted in classic '70s punk and power pop while keeping a distinctly modern grit. Over the years, the band has built a strong reputation in the international garage-rock scene through intense live shows and a series of well-received albums and singles, earning them a loyal cult following among fans of dirty, melodic rock 'n' roll.
The manufacturer, In The Red, is one of the most respected labels in contemporary garage, punk and underground rock. Based on a long history of discovering and supporting raw, uncompromising bands, In The Red is synonymous with high-quality pressings, lovingly curated releases and a deep commitment to analogue sound culture. Collectors and connoisseurs trust the label for its consistent aesthetic, carefully selected artists and durable vinyl editions that are built to be played for years. With "Exit Smiles", In The Red once again underlines its role as a key force in preserving and advancing the spirit of independent rock on vinyl.
