Formed in Rochester, NY in 1976, New Math opened for the likes of the Ramones, Pretenders, The Cramps, The Psychedelic Furs, The Damned, and The Gun Club at now-extinct local clubs, offering up an endless supply of ascending guitar lines and catchy hooks of amphetamine-fuelled power pop. With ease, the band produced charming, should've-been hits like the adrenaline rush of 'The Restless Kind', the two-tone English Beat-inspired 'Older Women' and of course the hyper-melodic anthem 'Die Trying'. This collection of out-of-print early singles and unreleased demos showcases why they made fans both in the US and UK.
