Cool. Who doesn’t love unoriginal, melancholy, pop-emo college rock? It’s complete with a few spacey synthesizer sounds, whiney guitar riffs, lackluster drums, and that’s about it. Admittedly, vocalist Drew Duddly – in addition to being a total dreamboat – has a nice pair of lungs, but they don’t pull this band out of the depths of mediocrity. Think the older and more mature cousins of Fall Out Boy, yet you’re still impressed more by Fall Out Boy’s lyrical ability and catchiness.

    That was a pretty well thought out review.( Sarcaaaaaasm) I don’t understand why music has to be groundbreaking to be good these days. This band plays some rockin tunes. No need to hate on the musicianship. Go see this band live and try to write the same review again. You won’t be able to.
