The Lillingtons - Automaton

Titled Can Anybody Hear Me? (A Tribute To Enemy You), today seen the release of a new EP from Newcastle, Wyoming kings of pop punk The Lillingtons. It is a fitting tribute to San Francisco's, Enemy You who may have never been the most high profile of bands but they did produce a small but impressive body of work. Tragically, Enemy You frontman David Jones passed away in 2015 but his memory lives on. The EP is 6 lovingly rendered covers of songs originally recorded by a band they had a strong kinship with.

It's available on vinyl and cd from Red Scare Industries (a portion of proceeds will be donated towards to National Suicide Prevention Lifeline). You can also get the digital version via Bandcamp. 

I am sharing the opening track which originally appeared on the 1999 album Where No One Knows My Name.

The Enemy You version is here

It may be a cover but it sounds like classic Lillingtons. Please don't let it be their last release. Enjoy!
