Drawing from Camden, the last Jawbox, and Joshua’s EP on Doghouse, Delaware’s The Same Page are wrangling some pretty/abrasive bursts of dissonance vs. yelping.
The first single is “The Future Freaks Me Out,” which is probably the catchiest song on the record, yet still heartfelt and simple enough to not be annoying.
When Motion City Soundtrack took to the stage and delivered an energetic mix of anthemic rock and melodic synth-pop, I was practically bouncing off the walls.
This garage rock/art punk revivalist trio consists of a drummer, a singer (or wailer/whiner/whatever) and a guitarist. No bassist. They make due just fine.
Driving into a setting sun, still-green trees rush by with a gleam of orange as you cruise down a winding road, summer in your hair, Fall at your back tires.
