Over the Memorial Day weekend, something magical happened. Ruby Hornet staple (and my new LOD brother) Auggie the 9th assembled a primer of essential ShowYouSuck songs for a mixtape simply named The Essentials. The mixtape consists of various songs throughout ShowYouSuck’s early, yet already illustrious career spanning his One Man Pizza Party trilogy and the Girls Girls Girls EP with Stefan Ponce.

If you’ve constantly found yourself late to the pizza party, The Essentials is the perfect way to catch yourself up to speed with ShowYouSuck’s sonic shenanigans. If that doesn’t entice you enough, the cover art features the Green Ranger swagging out Lord Zedd’s throne (or at least I think it’s Lord Zedd’s throne; I hope I don’t lose street cred if I’m wrong).

ShowYouSuck will be supporting Alex Wiley’s Club Wiley release on June 6th at Lincoln Hall with Taylor Bennett, Kembe X, Caleb James, St. Millie, and JeanDeaux. You can download The Essentials here.
