Earlier this year Philadelphia punk band Church Girls released an EP called Cycles, which was a short but sweet showcase of their well-balanced blend of post-punk and indie rock. Now theyāre releasing a new full-length in 2020 called The Haunt. Today weāre excited to premiere its dynamic first single, āCouldāve Been.ā The track picks up right where the quartet left off with their EP, with open strummed guitar chords, emotive singing from Mariel Beaumont and plenty of moments for live fists-to-the-sky singalong moments.

A note from Leslie about “Didn’t Think Twice”:
“When I began working on my third studio project and happened to watch a video on YouTube called ‘Just A Common Soldier’ I knew I had to write a song as a tribute to my grandfather and his service to our country during WWII.
Within a few days of D-Day, on June 6, 1944, Milton Smallwood Alexander, a 26- year-old Texan and my grandfather, landed on the shores of Normandy with a tank regiment of the Third Armored Division. As a tank driver, he was one of the brave Americans who liberated France, Belgium, and then Germany before returning home to resume a ānormal life.ā Like many of the Veterans of WWII, nightmares must have wrestled in his head of that horrific war, especially those of fighting in the Battle of the Bulge and watching his best friend die beside him as a deuce-and-a-half accidentally rolled over him, ultimately saving my grandfatherās life. For that generation of men, war was not discussed, though we can only surmise that the experiences they had were with the āGreatest Generationā for a lifetime.
The original version of āDidnāt Think Twiceā was released as a duet with former Navy SEAL, Pete Scobell on Veterans Day 2016. A chance meeting with an Uber drive in south Florida in December 2017 led to me connecting with the Association of 3rd Armored Veterans and another grandchild of a 3AD WWII veteran, Lou Baczewski, who is a historian and documentarian. Lou wrote and produced the documentary feature film āPath to the Pastā about his grandfatherās experience during WWII through France, Belgium and Germany.
After Lou and I talked, it was decided we would re-cut āDidnāt Think Twiceā with new lyrics specific to the experiences of those that fought in WWII and new music by the River Rats Band out of St. Louis, who produced the original music score for the film. Using images of 3AD WWII fighters and my grandparents, Lou directed and produced the new video version of āDidnāt Think Twiceā which is dedicated to the WWII veterans that served in the 3AD.”
The Rocking Magpie Raves Over Roses and Cigarette’s “Echoes and Silence”
It would be all too easy to say Roses & Cigarettes sound a bit like Whitney Rose or the Bangles (they do); but for us of an older generation thereās a lot more of Pat Benatar and Melissa Etheridge in here tooā¦ā¦.. listen to the title track Echoes and Silence and you too will be taken back to a time when curly hair and stonewashed jeans were de riguer for a man about town, like yours truly!
Not that these songs sound ādatedā in the slightest; no, no and thrice no! Pagliaro and Petrilli can write a song thatās simply timeless but with 21st Century Roots-Rocking ābiteā to the lyrics and perfect for playing either in the car, or late at night when you are wooing or being wooed.
