Produced by Jack Shirley (Deafhaven, Joyce Manor, Whirr, Jeff Rosenstock). Pardoner is a force to be reckoned with; melding slacker rock attitude with pummeling hardcore for a visceral sound not unlike a trip to the dentist’s office and a novacaine high. Came Down Different features some of their most pop moments yet, even occasionally ditching the foreman shouting for genuine hooks. The band even has their own visual language, with record sleeves, tour posters, and t-shirts adorned with Flanigan’s distinct, psychedelic drawings. Pardoner has been a fixture of the San Francisco DIY scene for years, and released their debut album on Father/ Daughter records in 2016. Since then, they have done noticable West Coast touring, having played gigs with Emily Yacina, Moaning, Momma, Pllush, Shamir, and Versing, amongst others. “Pardoner can’t stop saving us from ‘blah’ punk.” NPR // “Mixture of boredom and delight, slick hooks, and straight up noise.” Pitchfork //
