World War IX’s “Thank God It’s Monday” a direct call back to the late seventies and early eighties punk of acts like The Dickies and Black Flag. The snotty vocals, direct guitar lines, and splashy drum fills make for a track that will have fans singing along even after a few listens. The track is not long – a bit under three minutes – but the confidence that World War IX exudes through the entirety of this new single is considerable. The concluding drum line provides an emphatic exclamation mark onto one of the most honest punk songs we’ve heard this year.
