I listened to the debut e.p. by THE LONGSHOT couple of weeks ago and I wasn´t impressed much with what I heard.

Now it is time for their debut full length album and I listened to it and reviewed it for this webzine.  For those of you who don´t know it yet, The Longshot is the new band fronted by Billie Joe Armstrong, known as frontman of some little pop punk band called Green Day. Sounds familiar, eh? Joke. The album contains eleven songs of melodic punkrock bordering with a lot of poppier side of punkrock. Don´t get me wrong, the songs are pure quality and production wise the album sounds brilliant, but somehow it just didn´t work with me upon neither first nor second listening. It was just too mellow and too weak songs to like it. The last Green Day record was much stronger compared to this material, I know those are not the same bands and all that, but the songs on this album are just somehow too similar one to another. There are couple of okay tracks like for example “Kill your friends” or “Goodbye to romance” but just not enough compared to the boring ones. If you are a fan of Green Day or Billie Joe´s work you´ll dig this one. If not, do not bother.
