♫♪  Platinum Boys - “Downtown”

Oh yeah, baby, the Platinum Boys are back at it. After releasing Future Hits back in March, these Milwaukee dudes are wasting no time, with a new EP, Junior Varsity, and a single that’s dropping right before they hit the road. “Downtown,” streaming below, is a heavy rocker that should sound familiar to fans of P-Boys’ sound, and if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, am I right?!? As Marc Maron once said, “The Platinum Boys rock. Hard. They mean it,” and there’s no reason to doubt the man when you hit play on “Downtown.” Mmmm, daddy likes that rock n roll : )))))))))

The tour, dubbed “You Better Believe It,” kicks off in Chicago after Thanksgiving, then heads down South and then back up for a triumphant tour closer in their hometown. While you’re in the process of buying a 30-pack to take to one of their shows, be sure to catch the release of Junior Varsity so you can sing along to all the songs, if that’s your thing. The EP drops December 4 via Minneapolis imprint Forged Artifacts (pre-order HERE). Fingers crossed that the Boys tour the rest of the U.S., and the world for that matter. Humanity could use a group of dudes to shot gun beers with, and the Platinum Boys are those dudes.
