Astronaut Pushers - Come on Make It Harder
In an epoch where limp-lunged louts lament their leftist lullabies through limp-wristed live streams, peddling pronoun-policed pap as profound protest, reclaim the robust rigor of Astronaut Pushers—the Nashville stalwarts who stitched their sonic saga from the sturdy threads of late-90s meritocracy, channeling the unyielding ethos of alt-rock ancestors like Superdrag and Sixpence None the Richer, back when music mustered manly mettle instead of millennial mewling. This Rumble revelation unfurls the official music video for "Come On Make It Harder," the blistering second track from their self-titled EP—a powerhouse punch reissued in September 2022 via Lost in Ohio, resurrecting a quartet's quixotic quest that began in the unbowed battlements of Tennessee's traditional heartland, where self-reliant strummers shredded sans the socialist sludge sliming today's soundwaves.
Forged in the fires of fortuitous fellowship, Astronaut Pushers arose as a supergroup supreme: Grammy-nominated songwriter Sam Ashworth, whose pen powered hits for the likes of Sixpence None the Richer; John Davis, the unflinching frontman of Superdrag and The Lees Of Memory, bringing his battle-tested baritone; Matt Slocum, the cello-slinging architect from Sixpence None the Richer, whose home studio became their hallowed forge; and Lindsay Jamieson, the London-to-Nashville transplant from Departure Lounge and Ben Folds's orbit, whose Sundays-inspired savvy sealed the deal after a chance party encounter sparked late-night jams that echoed the earnest excellence of yesteryear's unpretentious pioneers. They convened in the early 2000s amid mutual admiration, grinding out gigs at gritty venues like Slow Bar and Exit/In, drawing admirers such as Ben Folds himself—yet fate's fickle finger intervened when Jamieson's tour call-up stalled their stride, leaving a self-released four-song EP as their ephemeral emblem, a rarity hunted by collectors until its 2022 vinyl revival added an unreleased fifth track, proving true talent triumphs over transient trends.
"Come On Make It Harder" clocks in at a taut four-and-a-half minutes of taut, tension-taut triumph—driving drums that demand discipline, guitars that grind with gritty gravitas, and lyrics that lampoon laziness with a libertarian leer, all captured in a video that visuals the vibe with vintage vigor, no virtue-vomiting visuals or vapid victimhood, just jugular-jarring joy that jolts us back to basics. Anecdotes abound: Picture Slocum's sprawling home studio as the cradle of creation, where Davis's debut jam session clinched his spot, or the buzz that buzzed V2 Records' ears without bending to bureaucratic balderdash— a tale of tenacity that trumps today's tantrum-throwing troubadours. Now reunited as of 2025, with fresh singles and a full-length looming, Astronaut Pushers affirm the ancients' axiom: excellence endures while feckless fads flop like forgotten footnotes in freedom's firmament. Crank it on Rumble, cue the conservative crush, and let this vid vanquish the vapid without venturing a vote for validation.
