Dirt Bike Annie's new drummer used to be in a band called Too Much Joy…but that name is a better indication of what Dirt Bike Annie sounds like. Or Google Dirt Bike Annie and see that their website describes their music as "explosive pop punk". Add the word "gritty" and I'd say you hit the nail on the head. Show Us Your Demons is Lookout records catalog circa 94 with a bit of L.E.S. sleaze. And although music like this is often best in a live setting, this is an album that is better than most of the punk that gets on the Warped Tour.
