Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Around the Corner

If you prefer your punk poppy-side-up, we’d urge you to check out Plattsburgh’s Hello Control. Like, right now. After unleashing their self-titled debut EP — one of the finer local releases of 2008 — they are back and, dare we say, even better, with their latest catchy-as-hell gem, Milk Milk Lemonade. This is a band with legitimate designs on pop-punk stardom. And we’re betting they get there, sooner than later. Catch them while you can when the group opens for post-hardcore darlings Framing Hanley and Transmit Now this Friday at the Higher Ground Ballroom.
