PERMANENT MAKEUP - REVIEWS

After shaking up the East Coast on tour this March/April, the aftermath rages on.  Stellar reviews just keep pouring in on this art-rock trio's debut full length The Void.... It Creeps.

"Like an American take on The Fall, played by folks who spent the ’90s smirking at the Monica Lewinsky scandal..."
- Yellow Green Red
Full Review here!

Legendary punk zine Suburban Voice has nothing but praise for PM:
"Roger Miller/Mission Of Burma-ish squalls, vocals with a D. Boon cadence at times, a few Fall touches.... It all adds up to something that's both edgy and melodic."
Full Review Here!

"It’s a hell of a lot of fun."
