Yo Man Go hail from the eastern part of Pennsylvania and they play melodic punk that'll please fans whose record collections boast releases from the No Idea and Fat Wreck catalogs.

This two song 7” is the first issued recording from these punk rock upstarts. “Life Lessons” is a melodic punk ditty that features some catch guitar riffs and crooned vocal melodies. It's got an early Lifetime feel to it, but not nearly as energetic. “Down with Bo Jangles” takes on a faster paced direction. I actually thought of Lifetime covering Hot Water Music while this cut was swirling around my record player. Good stuff!

Life Lessons is a promising debut that will likely place Yo Man Go on a number of bearded punk fans' lists of favorite new bands. If you like what you hear, pick it up from the label. Be on the lookout for a full-length later this year.
