Description
Constantly juggling hardcore and pop projects, veteran Bay Area musician Tony Molina has won over fans in both camps. Since 2002, Molina has played in several bands including Dystrophy, Ovens, Lifetime Problems, Caged Animal, Violent Change and his current solo work. In all of this projects, Molina values lyrical simplicity, structural concision, and the emotional impact of gnarly guitar riffs!
Most recently he released the Six Tracks E.P. through Matador Records Singles Going Home Alone series. Featuring five brief power-pop originals on the A-side and a stellar cover of Metallica's Orion on the flip, it contains a bona-fide pop hit in Breakin Up, a tuff tune that recalls the best of Dinosaur Jr and Teenage Fanclub and sounds for all the world like a great lost 70s radio hit. Pure magic!
Two other recent releases the wistful riff rock of his first solo album, Dissed and Dismissed, and his hardcore band Caged Animals barbaric debut EP " illustrate the striking dichotomy that has run throughout Molinas discography over the last eleven years.
Dissed and Dismissed was released earlier this year on San Franciscos Melters label. The album struck a chord with savvy listeners. Gathered some great reviews and rapidly sold-out of its initial pressing.
