Catchy London-based outfit The Vaccines made quite a splash in 2011 with their debut What Did You Expect From the Vaccines? an album chock full of reverb-heavy guitar hooks and dark pop tracks like “Post-Break-Up Sex” and “Wreckin”™ Bar (Ra Ra Ra.)” Last May the band released an EP of covers: “The Winner Takes It All” by ABBA, “Mannequin” by Wire, “The Beast In Me” by Nick Lowe, and “That Summer Feeling” by Jonathan Richman.

In September they put out their second original album Come of Age, a collection of noisy and insanely fun songs that will certainly get fans creating a little friction on the floor. On February 9th, the band will be stopping by the Triple Rock Social Club, where nothing blasts the chill from the air quite like a little rock and roll (and maybe a whiskey on the rocks.)
