A perfect example of “emo” where singers who can’t sing, and “screamo” where kids scream about life’s injustices from their parent’s homes in the burbs.
Catchy pop punk that you hesitate to call punk, cuz it’s rooted in simple good hooks like Springsteen, Mellencamp, Tom Petty, or a somber Green Day might pen.
Double live CD, last with Anneke van Gierssbergen, one of the great female singer of our time. I’ve followed them from metal to pop to trip-hop and back.
Spunky bubblegum powerpop anthems by a blonde hottie, signed to Joan Jett’s label, Warped Tour darlings, with “Because I’m Awesome” in teen sitcoms I loathe.
Brutal, gloriously-produced, and catchy in their straightforward way, but not dynamic enough for me, a fan of melody, breakdowns, and perhaps a few harmonies.
