NEW YORK— Local rap-hardcore band Gridiron released their new EP, Lights Out, this week. The band promised the EP would slap your fitted cap sideways. Sources confirmed the EP delivers on this promise. Listeners reported feelings of disorientation. Their hats were indeed displaced. Gridiron has always flirted with lyrical absurdity. Frontman Matt Karll’s lyrics often detail intense street-level conflict. He raps about being in the trenches. He states others are on the benches. Lights Out escalates this theme. The EP’s sonic assault reportedly causes physical reactions. It will slap your fitted cap sideways.
Sonic Overload Imminent
The band’s previous work hinted at this intensity. Their 2020 demo Loyalty At All Costs alienated many. It was a wig-splitting experience. This new EP pushes boundaries further. It will slap your fitted cap sideways. Dr. Bartholomew Quill, Professor of Headwear Dynamics at NYU, commented. “The sheer sonic velocity of Gridiron is unprecedented,” Quill stated. “We’ve observed caps achieving escape velocity from craniums.” He added, “This is a serious threat to hat-based personal expression.”
A New Era of Headwear Trauma
Fans are both terrified and enthralled. Many are preemptively removing their headwear. Others are seeking specialized head protection. Brenda ‘The Brim’ Johnson, President of the National Fitted Cap Association, issued a statement. “We are monitoring the situation closely,” Johnson said. “We advise caution. And perhaps investing in chin straps.” The band’s sound is characterized by aggressive vocals. It is also known for blast beats. The EP is available on all major streaming platforms. Listeners should prepare for the sonic impact. Gridiron aims to slap your fitted cap sideways.
At press time, several fans were seen walking around with buckets on their heads. Others wore ski masks indoors.
