Formed in the decrepit warehouses and non-profit art spaces of the industrial North, Chest Pains channel the likes of Holograms, Shame, and Pissed Jeans on "Petrified", a rip roaring, post-punk ode which writhes and squirms like some caged beast, eager to get out and feast on skinny jeans and '80s pop records.

One can only wait with anticipation until their carnage and chaos spill out to the masses.
