style
The style is slightly reminiscent of Green Day, which is mainly due to Armstrong's significant voice, due to which rumors about Green Day's involvement arose early on. In general - according to the band - there are many influences, Iggy Pop , Buddy Holly , The Smiths and The Kinks are often mentioned, so that the term "60's Sound" often appears. Influences from Green Days style are present, even if rock 'n' roll or garage rock dominate musically .
The song Fuck Time , originally only played live by the Foxboro Hot Tubs , was released in 2012 on Green Days album Dos (album) , which the band as a whole compared stylistically to the Foxboro Hot Tubs.
