What's My Name? My Name Is What? What?

Sub Pop brings another second wave emo act into their fold with this single from Lawrence, Kansas' The Anniversary for the label's Singles Club. Although, we see a little bit different version of The Anniversary here. While the band was always known for traversing genres, both a-side "What's My Name? My Name Is... What!? What!?" and b-side "Tu-Whit To-Whoo" posit the band as a pop-punk act embracing jazzy tones and acoustic flairs. The songs are a farcry from the fastidious, furious anthems they were penning on their debut Designing a Nervous Breakdown, yet still exemplify the band's keen ability to turn any song into an emotional wreck regardless of the dynamics they're playing with.
