Tony Molina

Tony Molina - Walk Away

Taken from the album "Dissed And Dismissed," out March 25 on Slumberland Records.

Constantly juggling hardcore and pop projects, veteran Bay Area musician Tony Molina has won over fans in both camps. Since 2002, Molina has played in several bands including Dystrophy, Ovens, Lifetime Problems, Caged Animal, Violent Change and his current solo work. In all of this projects, Molina values lyrical simplicity, structural concision, and the emotional impact of gnarly guitar riffs.

Most recently he released the "Six Tracks EP" through Matador Records’ Singles Going Home Alone series. Featuring five brief power-pop originals on the A-side and a stellar cover of Metallica’s “Orion” on the flip, it contains a bona-fide pop hit in “Breakin’ Up,” a tuff tune that recalls the best of Dinosaur Jr and Teenage Fanclub and sounds for all the world like a great lost 70s radio hit. Pure magic.

Two other recent releases — the wistful riff rock of his first solo album, "Dissed and Dismissed," and his hardcore band Caged Animal’s barbaric debut EP — illustrate the striking dichotomy that has run throughout Molina’s discography over the last eleven years. As music critic Sam Lefebvre wrote, “On Dissed and Dismissed, Molina intensifies the slacker clichés and self-deprecation of 90s indie rock into absurdist hyperbole. He expresses vulnerability and melodrama through bizarre truisms while referencing his forebears: Thin Lizzy leads, Radiohead lyrics, Replacements sneer. Molina appropriates unapologetically (openly paying tribute to Guided By Voices with a sterling cover of their “Wondering Boy Poet”), but distills the past into bursts of reverence less than a minute long.”

"Dissed and Dismissed" was released earlier this year on San Francisco’s Melters label. The album struck a chord with savvy listeners. gathered some great reviews and rapidly sold-out of its initial pressing. Slumberland Records is proud to bring you a reissue of this fine album on March 25, 2014 on red vinyl LP, cassette and as a digital download. Dig its indelible tunes and shredding leads while we wait for the new Tony Molina full-length, to be released on Slumberland later in 2014.

In Memory Of...

Best Before

Night Watch

Step out on to the dance floor
Got your black heart and your black on
Do a move or two that you learned in Amsterdam

Heart pound
I'll take another round
Look down and up and about
Lock your eyes
Make a little
Smile and toast
Entrance
Introduce yourself and
Make sure you lean in 
‘Cause the music's loud

Trust me, I know what you're scared about
Just me and all I care about
Just you and all the things you want to do
Alone, without me coming after you

I brushed the sand
Out of my ear you're with me when I get home
I thought about you when I brushed the sand
Out of my ear you're with me when I get home 
and I'm scared of the dark

One two, step out on the dance floor
Do a move that you learned
In Amsterdam and another from Sweden
You've got dreams I'll never be in
And there's a lot of girls that look like me
All dressed in black and blonde hair
Maybe even taller I can see them now
Oh, got some new age views on relationships
Just like you like it, no commitment

Trust me, I know what you're scared about
Just me and I'll I care about
Just you and all the things you want to do
Alone without me coming after you
