Much like their compatriots in Ohio State Fair (with whom this band currently shares 3 members), Boston post-punk troupe Pew Pew have garnered quite a reputation around town off the back of a red hot live show and no released tracks. We here at Allston Pudding then are pleased to help right that ship today with the premiere of their debut double single Cheers / Gank.

Recorded with the group’s original lineup (which included Kit from AP faves Squitch on bass) at the back half of 2024, these two boiling-point stompers have undergone some tightening since practice space footage from an even earlier phase first surfaced online. Pew Pew’s twin-aluminum-guitar attack is on full display here, with fronter Mijael and Jon Everett (of Hereboy and Jonny Tex fame) slashing around each other like boxers, throwing piercing distortion all over the sonic field while Mijael vents his very palpable frustrations in English and Spanish.

Hit the stream on Cheers / Gank below.

Cheers / Gank is out now. Pew Pew plays plays as part of Allston Pudding x handhold‘s Spring Concert Series at Zone 3 in Allston on Thursday, May 8th. The show is free and all ages, but you can RSVP right here.
