Newly-formed garage punk project’s “Dirty Jacks” and “She’s a War” are now streaming; vinyl available for pre-order

We were so beyond excited to check out Lektron, a new garage punk outfit led by Alkaline Trio’s Matt Skiba, today released their debut two-song single via Asian Man Records. Both tracks – “Dirty Jacks” and “She’s a War” – are now available on major streaming platforms, and fans can pre-order the vinyl, which is expected to ship by end of June, on asianmanrecords.com. Lektron also confirmed plans for a full-length album supported by extensive touring, with more details to come later this year.

You can listen to “Dirty Jacks” and “She’s A War Here

LEKTRON boast an unbelievable line up. It’s a who’s who of punk rock greatness. Featuring Matt Skiba (Alkaline Trio, Blink-182) on vocals and guitar, Atom Willard (Rocket From The Crypt, Against Me!) on drums, Hunter Burgan (AFI) on bass, and Randy Moore (Spiritworld, Dan Andriano & The Bygones) on lead guitar.

Lektron was born in a torrential rainstorm in San Jose, California on a fateful winter night. What started out as an excuse for Matt Skiba to make some noise in a friends studio quickly evolved into a garage-esque punk rock band

We are totally digging the first two single they are literally acting as musical caffeine as we power through our Tuesday morning .

“Dirty Jacks,” builds tension with an energizing and irresistible rhythm that pounds for a full minute before exploding with Skiba’s signature vocal hooks and just the right amount of grit and dissonance. “She’s a War” goes faster and darker, with more stripped down production and a generous dose of fuzz. Both tracks capture what these guys do best: deliver catchy yet macabre punk rock at a frenetic pace, with wry humor and wicked hooks throughout.

LEKTRON gives us high quality high energy punk rock that flat out rocks . Do yourself and check out “Dirty Jacks “ and “She’s A War” We guarantee you’ll be glad you did
