THIS TITLE IS A PART OF OUR 2025 RECORD CLUB

Hailing from Long Island, NY, Somerset Thrower is founded on lifelong friendship and dedication to all things rock and roll. Built on punk roots, the four-piece blends raw energy with melody-soaked textures to create something both urgent and timeless.

Their latest album, Take Only What You Need to Survive, was produced and mixed by Jon Markson (Drug Church, Koyo, The Story So Far) at Animal Farm Studios. The record captures the band at their most dynamic—equal parts cathartic and anthemic, with soaring guitars, driving rhythms, and unshakable hooks. It’s the sound of a band making music purely for the love of it, with no agenda other than to have fun and make something they would like to listen to.
