Restorations


After 2 full-lengths and an EP, Jon and Dave, members of Jena Berlin, decided that constant member rotations, broken vans, and financial exhaustion was enough to take their music in a different direction. After jamming together between Jena Berlin runs, the two grabbed members Ben, Mike, and Carlin along the way, and Restorations was formed. Taking a step back from the post-hardcore Jena Berlin delivered, Restorations is encompasses powerful, but composed, rustic vocals, and musically draws influences from Fugazi,, The Constantines, and Jimmy Eat World. They aren’t afraid to play as loud as they can, either.

The band made no hesitation to release their music, landing them a 2-song 7” on Evil Weevil Records, and a one-song split with Rosetta on Cavity Records to be released later this summer. All material is recorded by Joe Reinhart (Algernon Cadwallader) at The Headroom in Philly, and the band has played shows with The Smoking Popes, Thorns of Life, The Jealous Sound and fellow Paper + Plastick labelmates, The Riot Before. Where is Restorations headed? “This is a band we want to grow old with. We're trying to combine our past experiences to do this a little smarter this time around. This is the most fun any of us have had playing music and we want to make this something we can do for a long time,” says Jon. That, you can count on.
