Split 7''
Dirtnap
2013
Rating: 7.5 out of 10 for Mean Jeans, 6 out of 10 for Big Eyes
This split features two songs by each band. The front half is Mean Jeans, one of the best Ramones-ish pop-punk bands working. First track "I Miss Outerspace" is classic Mean Jeans, very enjoyable. then they cover a Big Eyes song "Since you Left," and definitely make it their own. The flip is Big Eyes, a band I didn't know shit about. They have more of a glam pop sound with female vocals, and pull the flip formula from the Jeans - one of their own and then a Mean Jeans cover. Not as into their half of the record, but it ain't bad. The Mean Jeans side is aces though.
