Dead To Me are a San Fran Punk Rock Band that has released their Little Brother EP and the only downfall is that it is an EP and not an Album. Little Brother EP is 13 minutes of kickass Punk rock music. Little Brother EP follows on from their outstanding album Cuban Ballerina which they released in 2006, and with this release they have successfully affirmed that they have what it takes. Little Brother is an stupendous EP bursting with poppin' melodies and infectious lyrics. Dead to Me are a band with grit that is able to produce their own distinctive sound.

Don't Wanna kickstarts the EP, with catchy melodies and a highly infectious chorus sang with raspy vocals. "I'm banking on the fact that you won't give a fuck and you fall back asleep."
"Arrhythmic Palpitations" continues the poppin' melodies
and the pace, this tune builds and ends with a massive chorus. "Remember how scary it was?"
"Little Brother" -- this song is the finest song Dead To Me have written to date. This prodigious tune is the center piece of the EP, Dead To Me have infused Ska, Reggae, Pop and Punk, producing some sweet music changeups throughout that are all infectious. The presence of this song on the EP begs the question - Should of they stayed in the studio longer and wrote an album and made a single release for this song instead of the EP? "My little brother is still getting into trouble."

"Ran That Scam" has a classic punk rock feel about it. "I fucking panic when you're here." "What's Wrong" completes the EP leaving you wanting so much more. "With words uglier that your face and the lies you're telling me."

"Little Brother" is a must have EP and certainly sends the message that Dead To Me is a band to keep an ear out for in the future.
