Chicago-based garage-rock outfit Bev Rage & the Drinks released their sophomore album Exes & Hexes last month via What’s For Breakfast? Records.

“Permanent Receptionist” is the lead single shared from the LP earlier in the year, a channeling old-school blend of punk and garage rock with some mean guitar licks and some smart and witty commentary on the ol’ corporate working culture.

As they explain below:

“It is interesting to think of the 9-5 office culture pre-pandemic and how there is now a looming fear in many folks who depend on these positions for health insurance and/or live month-to-month as the pandemic rages on,” singer Beverly Rage explains. “Many artists work these jobs, then work on their music or art at night and hope for a little time off to tour, play shows, or just find time to create.”
