Sharp Violet is a feminist punk band from Lindenhurst, NY. The band has released a few singles since their inception in 2016. On November 13, 2021, Sharp Violet released their long-awaited debut album, “On Scenic Lake Copiague”. The album features 6 new tracks and introduces the bands new drummer C-Roll to the fold.
“On Scenic Lake Copiague” holds nothing back. Delivering pure, raw punk, with just the right amount of distortion. Singing about revenge, strangers in your head, boys and candy, all with very catchy lyrics. “Caffeine, Caffeine, under your skin. Caffeine, Caffeine, let it sink in. Caffeine Caffeine, just let me in”. My personal favorite is the bands cover of The Nerves, "Hanging on the Telephone". Many have covered the song, most famously Blondie, but Sharp Violets take comes off like they are really having fun covering the song.
Sharp Violets greatest asset is their interplay and how they seem to anticipate each other’s moves. “On Scenic Lake Copiague” is a solid release. Volume is a must, for their sound deserves to be felt, as much as to be heard.
