Free Download: “Civil Inattention,” another song from Restorations’ upcoming LP2
This promising indie-punk outfit Restorations is revving up all engines for the April 2nd release of their second LP, titled LP2, on SideOneDummy Records. The band has been steadily releasing online singles from the album, as well as a 7” containing B-sides from the new record. They’ve gained a lot of momentum, and there’s no doubt we’ll be hearing a lot from this band over the next few months. This new song, “Civil Inattention,” is an airtight ballad that opens up into a bittersweet 90s jammer reminiscent of the Goo Goo Dolls, or even contemporaries in Gaslight Anthem. Download the song here, keep an eye out for preorders of the new record and get more information on the band’s April 5th album release show at the First Unitarian Church here.
