One Leaf / The Thumbs - Split 7" Snuff 062
From Baltimore, The Thumbs toured heavily, put out great full-lengths, and even eventually got signed to Adeline Records. And much like Scared of Chaka, they were a rulin’ band through and through: smart, fuzzy-dirty punk with melodies weaving throughout and, although they got dedicated fans, most people didn’t take note. Perhaps it was timing. Perhaps it was whatever, but the Thumbs never got their due. Don’t be bummed, listen to their legacy.
