CALLAGHAN - This new 5 piece from the streets of Chicago is going to turn some heads real soon. Outsider Records is proud to introduce the punk rock masses to Callaghan. Pulsing with creativity, these guys approach their mission with an utter urgency often lacking in a scene dominated by 4th rate Emo bands. At first, their aggressive approach brings to mind a variety of influences from the Stooges to Rose Tattoo to The Effigies. But perhaps the band's own description of their noise fits them best: "Naked Raygun gangfucked by the Deadboys" That kind of wild name-dropping often spells desperation for bands trying to adapt an identity but Callaghan uses these and other icons from the past as a springboard for their angular, energetic punk rock. Songs like "Devil's Plaything" and "Angus" are closet classics, waiting to be exposed. This band is likely on the verge of something great hereÉ Potential packed tight, fuse about to be lit, detonation is just around the corner!
