Banner Pilot is the latest member to join the Fat
Wreck Chords family. Hailing from the vibrant Midwest
punk scene, these Minneapolis miscreants waste no time
making fans of everyone within earshot of their
irresistible refrains. What do they sound like? Well, if
Jawbreaker, The Lawrence Arms, and Screeching Weasel
had a drunken orgy while listening to Dillinger Four’s
entire catalog, Banner Pilot would be the resulting
illicit offspring. With a résumé boasting time in bands
including Rivethead and Off With Their Heads, Banner
Pilot fits perfectly into the lexicon of modern Minnesota
punk rock. Having honed their skills with the release of
an EP, 7”, and full-length, the band are poised to claim
their due praise with their latest work, Collpaser. Twelve
captivating tracks that will rattle the fillings from your
teeth, Collapser maintains a nearly impossible balance
between unbridled youthful energy and maturely crafted
unforgettable melodies. With nimble baselines, thriving
guitars, pummeling rhythms and gruff alcohol and
cigarette laced vocals, Collapser exudes the passion of
true punk rock. Along with rousing music, honest lyrics
immediately ingratiate the listener with the lamentations
and revelations of everyday life, making this album
quintessential for any punk fan.
