BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT Ten Past Ten Records (2006)
This debut album is punk for the next generation. Well, punk mixed with guitar pop/rock, but it's still more authentic than Green Day.
The rhythms are full on, guitars crunchy and chunky, and opener 'No Escape' a full audio assault.
The vocals are good, but a little nice for the style of music, adding a slight 'guitar boy band' edge, but it's still a good album. The bass stands out in places, something we could do more with.
Higher paced and a lot heavier than most 70s punk but a little nicer too. Should do well, it's good to see kids playing guitars again.
