Just Joined begins the same – fast, hard, with throaty vocals (a little more human-sounding), galloping bass, riffing guitars, and a non-stop barrage of drums.
Before You Were Punk coulda been another collection of the same hotshot punk bands covering silly songs from a decade many wish we could deny we were a part of.
With very few exceptions, the bands here don’t even perform their cover with competence, and most are not even close. Most just play the song a bit faster.
Household names include Lagwagon, Jughead’s Revenge, and Bracket. Great upcoming bands like Hi-Standards, Nerf Herder, Armchair Martian, and Ridel High.
