Chumped features three members from Colorado who relocated to Brooklyn to be seen and heard and picked up a fourth and final bandmate. As a unit, they play tight, upbeat punk-pop that’s guided by the vocals and introspective lyrics of Anika Pyle. Pyle specializes in excess verbiage that's both funny and emotionally conflicted. It’s what gives songs like “December Is the Longest Month,” “Hot 97 Summer Jam,” and “Old and Tired” (where Pyle wonders if being single and broke will continue through to old age) an impressive edge over the competition.
