Two Star Review – …never coming back again…
EP | 14/04/2023 | Bakraufarfita Records
Punk Rock
Utrecht, Netherlands
Two Star Review are an autochthonous Punk Rock band. That means, they are restless, provide their listeners with catchy tunes to sing along and drink to, and they oppose authority. You will not find surprises on their second EP, but it definitely contains plenty of joy.
