There was a time when I thought Tokyo Police Club was the future of music. You know, Canadian wonderkind with a sense of modern irony playing what amounted to post-punk...
This is one of the more consistently awesome albums ever. And even though Steve Albini doesn't recall actually producing the album, he did a masterful job of translating...
I cannot stop listening to this album. I listened to the three tracks that Mal Blum put out as pre-release over and over again just waiting for the album to drop...
Fits, uh, fits in this nice little corner of my listening habits: the short-ass LP that I can put on when I get in the car, or get on the train and run through ...
Welcome to the goofier side of pop punk. Not that the genre isn't inherently goofy, but you have your emo-ish pop punk that deals with the trials and tabulation...
Hell yeah, pop punk! I mean, you got the fill-filled drumming, the slide on the guitar and the drop-out with the bass thump. And the snotty vocals with the back...
Ah, the clown princes of the pop punk scene go head over balls into the teen-dream world of TRL with this album. That's not to say they don't write some super-c...
I could have sworn these guys were like German or something. There's a break before one of their songs, "Jack Names the Planet" in which a couple wacky foreigne...
Hells to the yeah! I feel like this is what Chumped would yell at Belly and the ghost of Tanya Donelly’s 1993-95 experiment in estrogen-soaked indie rock. And t...
First off, awesome band name! I mean normally punny names are a no-no (insert names here), this one somehow works for me. Especially because of the type of fun,...
Who's happier than me that the latest trend in indie music is the 90s college radio throwback sound? It sure beats the hell out of the 60s psychedelia, 70s exce...
I'm kinda buzzed while I'm writing this and somehow it sounds both shitty and good. The production and whatnot sounds like ass, overproduced and sticky like Jap...
Sometimes you just want your rock 'n roll loud and sloppy and somewhat irreverent. Who cares if you understand a word of it, or if there aren't any Eddie Van Ha...
This generation's emo is crap. They have like Red Jumpsuit this and Three Times Dope that. It's all garbage sung by pretty-boy whiners. Where are the lead singe...
Who didn't go through their pop-punk thing in the mid-nineties? I mean, Green Day was kicking ass, and every Californian with a guitar and amp had a "punk" band...
Bringing a little more energy to the table, this sophomore album is filled with more, well, sophomoric punk pop. Granted, I've certainly heard more whiny, more ...
Not as good as their debut, Goddamnit!, this album still has a couple classic punk-pop gems. "Fuck You Aurora" is great fun (cuz it has the word "fuck" in the t...
I never really knew what these guys looked like until I saw them on Conan. Holy Satanic priest! I mean, I knew they had this whole death gimmick, but they came ...
