Another martini before jackhammer season begins. Glorious pulp from your favorite bent nose boy. Good diners, bad women, and black coffee.

Inspired by late night 1980’s films staples such as Barry Levinson’s “Diner” and Martin Scorsese’s “After Hours”, with a helping of booze hounds, dive bars, and all the wrong women you chase in your 20’s, “Nights & Weekends EP” is the unbuttoning of the collar for Zilla Rocca aka Vic Sage, the Noir Hop originator and Corrupt Novelist.

Over a scant 9 songs and 29 minutes (plus a bonus remix track of the lead single “Full Spectrum”), Rocca’s third solo offering features appearances from Has-Lo (Mello Music Group/ Wrecking Crew), Dr. Quandary (World Around Records), Brian Brizzo (Lessondary Crew), Curly Castro (Wrecking Crew), Small Professor (Wrecking Crew) and more.

From the Philip Marlowe credo on opener “Creme De Menthe” to the sticky ’60s funk cover of D’Angelo’s “Devil’s Pie”, Nights & Weekends EP lives up to it’s namesake: it’s where all the action goes down.
