If you enjoy bands like Ash, Arctic Monkeys, The Fratellis, The Hives, early Libertines, Dinosaur Jr., Weezer, The Jam, The Stranglers, and The Clash then it will definitely be worth it to check out the debut EP from My Cruel Goro.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Songs on the debut EP, such as &#8216;Clash&#8217;, have the old school 70&#8217;s rock &amp; roll vibe with sudden flares of punk put to a modern day production. Another song off the EP, &#8216;Crapford&#8217;, keeps to a modern day style of punk with consistently moving drums and driving power chord riffs. &#8216;Glue Buzz&#8217; is an outstanding track that has a more free flowing 70&#8217;s jam style with many different dynamic and tempo changes which flow together seamlessly to make for a real pleasant listen.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"13104\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2015\/08\/my-cruel-goro\/11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n.jpg?fit=960%2C960&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"960,960\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n.jpg?fit=640%2C640&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13104 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n.jpg?resize=640%2C640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"11149365_369311756590888_1473603814840571360_n\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a>To go along with the new My Cruel Goro EP, the band has been working with producer Massimo Scoposki to create some interesting music videos for their songs with \u2018Crapford\u2019 premiering in The Sound Of Confusion and \u2018Glue Buzz\u2019 in The Record Stache. Here is what the two had to say about My Cruel Goro:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cA terrific Janus-faced creature, with strong elements of celebrated 70s bands such as The Clash, The Stranglers, The Jam, and The Vapors on the one hand and, on the other, the raw pounding modernity as Ash, Arctic Monkeys and even Weezer\u201c<\/em>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<strong>The Sound of Confusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhile 70s bands may not number among their influences, their music is reeling with the raw energy and stylings of this period. No straightforward \u2018sounds likes\u2019 comparisons, but the Stranglers and early Clash come close to mind\u201d<\/em>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<strong>The Record Stache<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The My Cruel Goro EP will be available for free download on MP3 or WAV on their\u00a0<a
