***Long awaited second album from hardworking PDX youngsters, following up their classic Landmine Beach LP, as well as singles on Black Water, Rock Bottom, Taken By Surprise, and more. Driving, melodic punk / hardcore (but NOT "melodic hardcore" if ya get the distinction) with dark, swirling undercurrents. Catchy but not at all vapid. Sounding like a cross between Portland, Southern California, and Copenhagen, you could compare this to bands like Observers / Red Dons, No Hope For The Kids, Articles Of Faith, Reagan Youth, The Wipers, Adolecscents, etc. Co-release with Dirtnap / Black Water in the US and Taken By Surprise / Sabotage in Europe.
