The Bombs Away split EP brings together East Bay veterans Tsunami Bomb and Oakland’s The Hammerbombs, pairing two bands connected by geography, community, and a shared commitment to accessible, grassroots punk. Side A features Tsunami Bomb delivering the tight, hook-driven sound that helped cement their place in the East Bay punk scene. Their tracks highlight the melodic edge and direct songwriting that made them a key part of California’s punk rock explosion in the 90’s and the broader wave of Bay Area punk.
Side B shifts to The Hammerbombs, representing Oakland’s strong DIY spirit. Their contribution is straightforward, energetic, and rooted in the self-made approach that defines the band. Their tracks capture the raw, honest style that has made The Hammerbombs a reliable force in the local underground. The Bombs Away EP is now available via streaming platforms, Bandcamp, and on coloured 7″ Vinyl via Rad Girlfriend Records.
