about

The Smashing Times, psychedelic twee freakbeat from a Baltimore basement. Instruments played by humans, bare feet touching the ground. Wrinkled button downs, sweaters filled with holes, music audibly and sometimes visibly made by humans. Can you change the strings on your guitar? Maybe, can you buy me dinner? Lock up your Rickenbackers, Thee Jasmine Monk is coming to town, can they stay on your couch?

-Ferd Merkin, Summer 2022, Waldberghofftrarbkdikdorff
