Recently, I have become disenfranchised with folk punk. Every time I listen to it, it seems like every band wants to exactly fit the Planet-X roster, be as close to Andrew Jackson Jihad as possible, or want to sound like Days n' Daze. Luckily for me, and everybody else, Where is my Spaceship falls into none of those categories, instead spiking their folk punk with plenty of pure punk attitude, a little bit of ambiance, and some power pop level hooks.
While their unique take on folk punk may set them apart, do not dismiss them simply because they are not your traditional folk punk band. The band still shows significant fondness for folk punk trademarks, such as a dry, cynical sense of humor, with lines like "I'm gonna sleep next to a can of open paint" on songs like Snake Juice Anthem. That also what helps to make Where Is My Spaceship such an enjoyable listen, there is instantly a feeling of familiarity and some common characteristics of a folk punk band, but they also add enough of their own flare to separate them and to prevent them from being completely pigeon holed into folk punk singularly. If you dig tasty jams you can sing along to, Where Is My Spaceship comes highly recommended.
