Preceding my podcast with Matt Perrin is the band he told me about during said cast, MISSOURI EXECUTIVE ORDER 44. I checked them out after we concluded and instantly fell in love with this slab of Missouri-drenched goodness.

Featuring members from a ton of sick bands, the conglomerate ends up being very reminiscent of early Nerver material when they went under the name Celebration. The six tracks that comprise 'Seventeen Dead in Caldwell County' mix noise rock and emo-violence with that dank and dirty KC-style that has dominated the scene for years through bands like Canyons, Big Water, and the aforementioned Celebration. The music is heavy, sludgy, knows when to lay down breakdowns with panic chords, short, dirty, and anxiety-inducing.
Their debut EP opens with a track that sounds like a fuckin' demon's sermon and leads beautifully into the banger that is "Fuckin' Boggs" that hangs on to reality by a thread, and ending in just 36 seconds after a massive breakdown. My personal favourite "Bonnie Lonnie Lauralie" follows and is a dissonant romp with enough speed and ferocity to make it truly frightening. "Crooked River" is a noise track followed by "F.L.D.S." and "Root Beer", both of which slap and have music videos embedded below for you to check out, the latter of which ends with some hilarious repetitive shouts of "somebody get me a fucking root beer!".
I don't know what's coming next for this band but I'm fucking stoked on it already!
