RIYL – The Get Up Kids, The Promise Ring

So when i took a glance at this record i noticed it was on Civil Defense League, which is Jim Ward’s label. So i thought to myself well this dude has a decent track record he was only in the greatest band of all time At The Drive-In and shit even Sparta had one good EP. I pop the record on and from the first track i was hooked. the music is quite reminiscent of early Get Up Kids with more modern pop punk style vocals. This is a perfect combo for me. as the album goes on the tracks get better and better, with the exception of “Don’t Go To Hell” i could have done with out that song at least in the middle of the record. Another awesome thing about this band is that they are a three piece which i feel is badass if you can pull it off and they do. I hope this band sticks around i can see good things moving forward. So to wrap this all up this band is perfect for the person who loves pop punk but doesn’t want to be looked down upon for it. Do yourself a great favor and pick this record up its only 7.99 on itunes. If there is a vinyl version out there i need to pick it up if not get on that.
