Self-described "traitors of the human race," Nashville-based act, The Mumzees, definitely packs all the angst of a post-punk band. With vocals that rotate between snarling and apathetically monotone, minimalist guitar leads and a hazy aesthetic, the group manages to create catchy tunes that'll prove to be slices of heaven for those seeking a decidely late-80's vibe. Check out the Mumzees at Meal Ticket 12/2 with PONCÉ and James Ross, and stream them below.-Olivia Sisinni
