Cigarette Tricks: What to Download Tuesday: Terry Malts

Hey, are you tired of fuzz-rock throwback bands like The Fresh & Onlys, Thee Oh Sees, and the Dum Dum Girls? Good, me neither. And in a week that features a many other notable new releases (including standouts from Lambchop and Frankie Rose), Killing Time, the studio debut from Bay-area retros Terry Malts, wins the hard-earned distinction of the record to download this Tuesday. Nothing that reinvents the wheel here, just super catchy, three chord pop-inspired punk that doesn't hide its indebtedness to bands like the Ramones and the Buzzcocks. Give it a chance. I'm confident it will get your toes a tappin' and your fists a pumpin' -- if indeed you are a toe tappin', fist pumpin' kind of person. And if it doesn't, no worries. As I said, it's a great week for new releases and there are plenty of records to get excited about. Full list after the jump.
