Outclassed's This Might Be Coincidence

is a five-song escape from tranquility. Their satisfyingly raucous punk is filled with energy and misshapen tempos. Song titles like "Kick God in the Face, Hail Satan" and "Fuck Mark" are almost impossible to hate. Their label Forcefield Records is also home to City of Ships, Triac, and Cannabis Corpse. The one-sided LP release of This Might Be Coincidence

would undoubtedly please fans of Brainworms and 1994! Listen to Outclassed and get a sense of what they're doing before you miss them when they roll through a town near YOU.
