CLOWNING ACHIEVEMENT
Our favorite critic, Mike Greenblatt, weighs in on Atlas Jams with the first review of the new single by Mike Daly & The Planets:

"Kill A Clown" by Mike Daly & The Planets is a delicious slice of power pop out of New Jersey with chunky guitars and perfecto vocals. Daly sneers it good like the clown killer he is. Complete with kazoo break and gunshot, it's a visceral blast of goodtimey violence. Please note that no clowns were harmed during the recording. Daly's a cross vocally between Graham Parker, Elvis Costello and/or Joe Jackson. The single is available now in Amazon MP3, iTunes and CD Baby.
