Spraynard- Funtitled

In a previous review, I referred to Spraynard as “the Cheeze Whiz of punk rock”: nothing fresh about it, but a mouthful still tastes pretty good at 3am after a few dozen beers. The strangely befitting addendum is that, like Cheeze Whiz, Spraynard never really go stale. Even though Funtitled gives listeners almost exactly the same thing as their debut, Cut & Paste, which came out a little over a year ago, Spraynard’s music is still a lot of fun. More often than not you’ll think ‘didn’t I hear this song already?’ halfway through the record, but they have enough jubilance and heart to make it worthwhile.

RIYL: Latterman, funfetti
