Stay, don’t go

We’re like halfway through the halftime show

Do not let this one end

Before you emerge as the winner

thread is becoming a hugbox so here's some measured opinions

"Kind of overblown imo but some good choons" - rudy
"punk bands who sound like springsteen aren't actually good" - robin (who loves springsteen more than anything)

He's certainly there in the mix but yeah again, I'm left scratching my head about the predilection for delineating influences, I guess it's a good reference point to describe the sound but not the quality.

there a lot of songs I love here

then there are some I think are alright but don't leave a mark on me

all in all this would be a 4.2 if I could

So I hear basically zero punk in this whatsoever.



As above, the influences being thrown around definitely help to describe the sound, but imo sell the band short as an emerging and unique voice.



Also, ima mention Let Me Down Easy because the groove and wailing guitar lead on that tune is incredible and I haven't seen it mentioned once.

The only song that gave me major Springsteen vibes was the first track.



Also I just wanna say the climax on the last song may possibly be the greatest musical moment of 2017
