Two bands from the Midwest have teamed up for a 6-song split EP by The Raging Nathans and The Reaganomics. Featuring three new songs from each group, the 7" will be a joint release between Rad Girlfriend Records and Red Scare Industries.

The Raging Nathans -- who are playing today at the livesteam event The Fest That Never Was -- released Oppositional Defiance earlier this year, and The Reaganomics released The Aging Punk at the end of 2019.

Still Spitting Blood comes just one year after Waste My Heart and it’s only 10-songs and 20-minutes in length. The quantity is probably there, but the band is … Read more

Waste My Heart
Rad Girlfriend Records (2021)

It’s the pop-punk conundrum. Raging Nathans are a distinct band -- yet they aren’t. On first listen their sound is familiar. Take Lookout Records and Ramones-inspired sing-alongs, add skatepunk urgency, put it in a blender and set to crush.
