Epitaph Records is back with mighty punk records. Last year´s Propagandhi record still resonates in my ears and now the long wait is over, here is the new Pennywise album! I loved every second of this album and now read in this zine the review and find out why!

This record contains 14 new songs, some of which we already heard as singles before the record hit this world with a bang. The title track is by far one of the best Penny songs that I have heard since “Full Circle” which was for me the best Pennywise record ever! The energy of the title track combined with fast pace and Jim´s singing topped with great melody just rules. “Keep moving on” is an anthem about having strength and survive the odds and I just wanted to scream with energy while listening to this little fucker. “Live while you can” most of us know and have already heard as a lyric video single prior to the release of the record. This is by far also one of the best Pennywise songs ever and the absolute highlight of this record. One of those songs you just wished you wrote. “We set fire” is the song with fast pace ready to set the fires of the rebellion in us the listeners. I love the production of the record and the energy I feel while listening and it always makes my day as I listened it already dozen times. “She said” is also one of the singles from the record and this song is very special to me because of the lyrics about passing away of someone you care about which happened to me too many times. Another highlight of the record for me is definitely “Can´t be ignored”, the song I have on repeat almost twenty times in a row! “All the ways u can die” is “Date with destiny” for the 21st century. You will notice that I didn´t mention all of the songs and that I did intentionally because you MUST get this album and listen everything and I just don´t want to spoil some gems. Lyrically strong, musically superb, this record is one of the strongest, if not THE strongest record of the year!
