Comment: The Exhilarating News was the debut album by the Taxpayers, an Portland-based punk rock combo. They are self-confident, arrogant and impressive from the start to the end. These 13 pieces used to extend from desperate (post-)punk energy and galloping alternative rock to delta blues, country, folk and even ballad-esque soft moments.Indeed, if you are intended to find out a good punk band then The Taxpayers is thought for your pleasure.
