Pep Squad delivers a cool new CD, Yreka Bakery, through Tooth & Nail Records; not nearly as dark as their previous project and a little more fun. "Freak Show" is just that; a bit freaky but really playful. "On That Day" is very spiritual with lots of Bible lyrics, and much more mellow than I expected, and "The Fabulous Moolah" is a really cool song that I can't stop singing to myself. The beat picks back up with "Black and Blue" and "A Beat," and then gets interesting again with "Erik's Got a Girlfriend" and the cool disco beat of "Kandigram" (I wish there were a few more songs like this!). I think Pep Squad can do anything; their maturity as a band shows through their musical performances and their versatility... Pep Squad rocks.\
