Their hearts are in the right place (old school punk), but it’s hard to tell at a pass if this is worth the time. Fast and frantic punk, vaguely political.
A reissue of the band’s ’99 release, with the original singer, when they were way into NOFX, and before the violin was fully integrated. When people call Yellowcard punk, a lot of people arch an eyebrow. You’ll get it once you’ve heard this.
Not trendy indie new wave-obsessed garbage, but The Epoxies kinda set themselves up for the comparison with their fashion sense and slathered keyboards.
Some snoozing moments, some missed notes, but a surprising amount of “hey, these guys are pretty cool” in a “they could open for Down By Law” type way.
From Italy, catchy emo/punk, first U.S. release, recommended for fans of Yellowcard, Over It, and Fall Out Boy. Throw in The Ataris, just for good measure.
Fast punk from the ashes of Anti-Anti. Like the glorious, fast and melodic early days of Screeching Weasel and The Queers, but with more layered whoas.
