Stepping into the clear inebriation of "FREE ACID" by Bangor, Maine punk trio Milk St. and I can't help but think of a cross generational subversive No Sweater song by time traveling cosmic hippies who don't realize they are hippies at all. Maybe an amalgam of Weezer, Violent Femmes, Cake, Pixies and the mythical Folk Nirvana.
Milk St., after all "takes the melodic aspects of midwest emo, and the rawness of grunge to create what they call, Northeast Emo" and it is a fair name, fair description. The trio is Jonah Wakefield on guitar and vocals, Gabe Chambers on bass and Josh Whittemore on drums. "FREE ACID" is from the "Free Acid / Cycles" EP out now. Check it out.

Bio
Northeast emo from the Pine Tree State.
While the foundations of the band date back to 2018, originally under the name Spaced, Milk St. officially launched in 2022 with the release of their debut album Spaced - an ode to their first name. Composed of founding vocalist and guitarist Jonah Wakefield, bassist Gabe Chambers, and drummer Harry Burns, Mill St. quickly followed up their debut effort with two singles - “I’m Sorry That I Left You (On New Years Day)” and “Just Lust” - that have been very well-received to date.
With the recent addition of Harry Burns to the band as a full-time member, Milk St. were motivated to get back into the studio, where they recorded 9+ demos in the span of just two weeks! One of these demos would form the foundation for “China Town” and the remainder of the singles on their newest album V3RM0NT! The Milk St. boys are currently on tour through New England!
