Ah Nap-Town, you hold a special cringe in my heart. Apparently they do the same for label Asthmatic Kitty Records who today announced signing Indianapolis based artist Grampall Jookabox. The label will release his second album, Ropenchain on November 4th in conjunction with Joyful Noise Records. Somewhere between hip-hop and indie-pop lies his works - probably large in part by his uncle’s grade school four-track loaner. The two mixed together well into his puberty. Fast forward a decade plus and now we have a punk underbelly to its house hip hop roots.
