Try Again by ahem

"Everyone needs a scuzzy, fuzzy, injection of reckless energy from time to time—and few did as well as ahem managed on their messy-as-heck debut. 10 songs, 26-minutes, absolutely infectious." —Gold Flake Paint

“Sunny and sweetly morose . . . shit, being sideways sounds like a blast.” —City Pages

“Channels the pop-rock purity of The Cars through a grungy pop-punk lens . . . [a] fantastic debut album.” —The Alternative

“A bite-sized punch of power punk . . . “Sideways” might be enough to convince you that hey, you’re doing pretty great after all.” —The Grey Estates

“Evoking the endless energy of a childhood sugar buzz, each fuzzy-alt-pop track of Try Again is like listening to flickering memories of my younger-carefree self, running full speed and out of control through sunlit days.” —Melodic Noise

“’Sideways’ sees the return of ahem’s trademark energy, the guitars weaving a bright and infectious sense of momentum that sweeps up the listener and deliver them to a cathartic release.” —Various Small Flames (UK)

“On Try Again, ahem have been able to crystalize their fuzzy, anthemic power-pop into a near science . . . feels like a mature look back on lost youth.” —Reviler

“’Sideways’ jitters with irreverent energy. There is no hook because everything is the hook . . . a glorious ode to individuality.” —Ear Coffee

“Somewhere in Minnesota, there’s an underground bunker turning out some of the happiest and loudest rock in the state.” —Pass the Mic
