Details:
A compilation of melodic punk and hardcore bands from pretty much all over the world. It’s about as good as that description would suggest. If you like Bane and Kid Dynamite, and are not averse to listening to lots of bands that sound similar but not as good then you’ll enjoy this. As with any compilation there are definite highs and lows, but thankfully with this one the lows aren’t really too low, rather just forgettable. The highlight for me would have to be the Dear Tonight track, as they’re possibly my favourite new band of the last year, but most of the tracks on here are worth a punt.
