Squad 5-0

Bombs Over Broadway

Tooth & Nail

Everything about this album screams classic rock. I was expecting faster, louder music after seeing them in concert, so I was a little disappointed. Still, the album is well-written, musically tight, and well-produced. Although I’m not a big fan of classic rock, this one sits well in my stomach. It’s on Tooth & Nail, but the lyrics aren’t preachy at all (as far as I can tell). If you’re looking for more of a punk sound, you should definitely see them in concert, but consider this your warning: there will be about five minutes of preaching at every live show.
