This review is almost identical to my thoughts on this album (although I think I like it a little more than you did). It was a little disappointing. Love the comparison to FCC too, I completely agree with it. Contender is a much better album than Angst, in my opinion.

There are some really good songs on this album, though. Just not many that stand out like Anywhere But Home, Scream Goodbye, etc.

Thanks Steve. Well summed up.

The thing is, I don't think the production is very good on this. It makes no attempt to mask TE's yelping vocals. Are the band technical? Not very, but I think I'd rather they be turned up & the vocals turned down (an extremely simplified definition of mixing & production, I know... Haha).

Yeah, I know what you mean. I don't like Taylor's voice...at all. He's a nice dude and has good stage presence but I really think Kevin Cale has a much better voice. It's a shame he's no longer with them.

I have to wonder what happened there with Cale. At the very least, I think the band wre a bit pissed off at the timing of his departure.

Good review. I like this new generation of pop/punk, but not a fan of this band, though. His voice bothers me and don't hear anything new coming out of it. It's catchy, and the musicianship sounds dated. I'm starting to hear a lot of bands with this similar sound.

Early Retirement is catchy as fuck. I'm kinda getting passed the "GEEEEEET BEEEEEEEEEEEEEENT" part and just not giving a fuck about it.

Yeah, that surprises me too. They were good on the first listen, but they were definitely not as memorable as I initially thought. Then again, you probably have yet to listen to Contender a second time (or even listened to the entire album for that matter!).

why is that surprising pmmets?

oh, brother, I actually listened to it multiple times. If you remember, I've liked them for a long
time. I added their first ep on the database.
