Whyte Lipstick: “On Your Mind”

Tracks
Written By Michael Gutierrez

An uptempo punk growler. Plenty of reverb on our highlighted track “On your mind” by Whyte Lipstick, and it all comes tumbling through the speakers like a cooked ham down a Slip N’ Slide. The background vocals give this track a surf punk feel, while the chug-a-lug of the guitar distortion anchors the song in the grit, grime, refuse, and debris of… well, you know, trash. Free Kitten meets Germs meets surfing safari. Off the EP Trash.
