Their 2015 debut LP &#8216;Chartreuse&#8217;\u00a0is their most vicious lure, featuring 10 tracks that bleed heavily with feminine rage and cheeky sass alike.<\/p>\n<p>Sharkmuffin is ready to release their sophomore effort &#8216;Tsuki&#8217;\u00a0\u00a0(feat. Kim Deuss on drums) on May 5<sup>th<\/sup>, 2017, touring the country this March with their original line-up of Drew Adler on drums and Chris Nunez on second guitar, and plan to serve up their signature cocktails and ice cream by inventing the first punk rock brunch truck.
