I think they're great. To take "BOODY MESS"'s expression, Weirdo Rippers is really a blast! I can totally enjoy it, 30 minutes of great punk rock, lofi, sometimes shoegaze. I don't know if they're forward-thinking, but I think they rock. When the songs explode it's really great, as in Every Artist Needs A Tragedy, My Life's Alright Without You, Neck Escaper.
I also listened to Nouns, but for the moment I don't get all the worshipping it gets. It's a good one for sure but I don't think it's better than Weirdo Rippers. Maybe I'll have to listen to it more, it's only been out for a couple of days really. And on each listen it seems to grow... so maybe it's as good as people tell (I mean, it got 4.5 out of 5 on Tiny Mix Tapes)
