The very first song off of The Bloodtypes' newest EP, Johnny, laments a hopeless attraction to a communist. The EP is named for the tune, which also sets its tone-as a whole, the release delves into matters of the heart, but rarely takes it all too seriously. In addition to the story of lust at first sight with "Johnny the commie," the EP offers up tales of romantic possession in terms of zombie invasions and alien mind-melds. Through it all, this Portland band boasts a raw punk rock authenticity, combining the fuzz of garage, a touch of New Wave keys and a splash of late '70s punk energy. They'll share the stage with San Jose rock band Hush Money. (Amulya Datla)
