THE PROBLEM WITH KIDS TODAY

Rock n Roll delinquents. Hot shit rising from a tool shed in Branford.

The Problem with Kids Today is an up-and-coming Connecticut trio with Tate Brooks leading the charge on guitar/vox/mic head-butting, Stone-Cold-Silas Lourenco-Lang on low end bass/vox, and Reena Yu pounding on drums. TPWKT’s fun, wild shows and feverish, fashionable following evoke the Mercer Center Arts era of the New York Dolls. Fast, combustible, lewd and spontaneous – they have all the gems of a fantastic live act. With a debut album recorded at Sans Serif Studio in New Haven on the way this winter, teaser tracks like “You’re in Love With Junk” and “Fly Boy” can be found on the band’s Bandcamp site as well as major streaming platforms.

PEÄSÄNT

“Frederic Kaiser — vocalist and guitarist of Peasant… Paul de la Reza on guitar, Tony Mascolo on bass and vocals, and Kyle Austin on drums, kept the music hard and incited even more dancing, jumping, and screaming along, with Kaiser wandering out into the audience a couple of times as well to get further into the action.

“I love everybody in this room,” Kaiser said at one point, and the love was returned again and again during the set. Songs like “Sam’s Sheriff” and “People Kill Me” — which Mascolo said was his favorite — smacked every alt-rock punk-pop button repeatedly. By the time the set was over, everyone had one more favorite new band to follow.” - New Haven Independent
