INFAMOUS STIFFS – Lonesoul
OAKLAND, CA (July 4, 2025) — OAKLAND, CA – Southern California punk rockers INFAMOUS STIFFS have released their EP “The Ornery Six” on Golden Robot Records. “The Ornery Six” is a six-song EP that punches hard and fast, clocking in at around 15 minutes — pure punk adrenaline distilled into a compact, no-nonsense format. The name “ornery” isn’t just clever wordplay; it speaks to the EP’s defiant, snarling, and rebellious energy. It’s not polished radio punk — this is raw, blue-collar, Southern California punk rock with roots in skate culture, garage grit, and East Coast snarl. Infamous Stiffs aren’t trying to reinvent punk — they’re reaffirming it. This EP is a reminder of what punk sounds like when it’s not concerned with being cool or commercial. Just six dirty, loud, unfiltered punches to the gut.

The track “Lonesoul” is the most moody track on “The Ornery Six”, slowing things down a bit to focus on feelings of mortality and struggles with it. Instead of fast punk energy, it has a heavy, steady beat and dark guitar riffs that create an intense, gritty sound. The vocals are rough but honest, with lyrics that feel personal and real. It’s a powerful break from the louder songs on the EP—a moment that can show the band’s raw, human side.
With the release of the EP Nathan Cox steps in to do the visual part. Known for his work with hard rock and metal acts, Cox brings a moody, cinematic edge – think dim lighting, stark shadows, and slow, deliberate jump cuts that mirror the song’s slower pace and somber feel. See all this and hear all this with the release of “The Ornery Six” Infamous Stiffs.
