I'm joking, but this band is definitely working off a heavy RITES OF SPRING era Discord influence, moreso on the songs I enjoyed the most. They don't <em>quite </em>hit that Revolution Summer mark, but I don't really know if anyone really can. That being said, this short debut EP incorporates synth to that kind of sound which is a nice iteration I havn't heard before. Turn up the synth in the mix on the next release though! If you are heavily into Revolution Summer type stuff, I would suggest you get this and keep an eye on this band. Also I have to mention that they have a simple band website: <a href="https://luckless.neocities.org/">https://luckless.neocities.org/</a>.</p><p><em>Listen here: </em><a href="https://lucklessband.bandcamp.com/album/i-promise-to-be-good"><em>https://lucklessband.bandcamp.com/album/i-promise-to-be-good</em></a></p><figure class="kg-card kg-bookmark-card"><a class="kg-bookmark-container" href="https://lucklessband.bandcamp.com/album/i-promise-to-be-good"><div class="kg-bookmark-content"><div class="kg-bookmark-title">I PROMISE TO BE GOOD, by LUCKLESS</div><div class="kg-bookmark-description">4 track album</div><div class="kg-bookmark-metadata"><img class="kg-bookmark-icon" src="https://ghost.the-counterforce.org/content/images/icon/a0595614732_3.jpg" alt="" /><span class="kg-bookmark-author">LUCKLESS</span><span class="kg-bookmark-publisher">Bandcamp New &amp; Notable Oct 16, 2023</span></div></div><div class="kg-bookmark-thumbnail"><img src="https://ghost.the-counterforce.org/content/images/thumbnail/a0595614732_5.jpg" alt="" onerror="this.style.display = 'none'" /></div></a></figure>
