Summer Jam



Any lingering doubts I may have had about this record were well and truly unfounded. Seriously, such a good record.

They've starting selling the cd/vinyl on their current U.S. tour, so enevitably it took little time for the record to be leaked and I'm seriously glad it did as it's an incredibly impressive output. On the the first few listens, it seems to possess a greater level of accessibilty that 'Mutiny!' but this is no bad thing. Even if they blow up and become massive in ala New Found Glory, then I'm going to be pleased for them because as a band they've worked incredibly hard to get to the position that they're in now. I've never seen them put in a band live performance and their touring schedule shows them to be one of the most hardworking bands around right now in the punk/hardcore/whatever scene. They deserve all the accliam that this record will undoubtably bring them.

Stand out tracks for me so far are 'Summer Jam' and 'Like You To Me' and 'The Few That Remain'; the first former being onee of the catchiest things that I've heard in ages.

I've found my album for the summer for sure.
