(record review)TBA-“It´s something”

TBA started in 2015.and this is their new release and I listened to it and reviewed it for this webzine. If you are into melodic skatepunk, you came to the right place. Read the review here and get the album!

This band is based in Bucharest, Romania and I am pretty sure that it is the first Romanian melodic punk band that has been reviewed in this webzine. The record contains 6 melodic punk songs and although the music is mainly skatepunk, TBA are not shy using pop punk and doing it awesome like for example in “Note to Self”. The lyrics are in English language and as I read them while listening to the record, they are mainly personal with a slight between the lines touch of political. For me, the best song on the record is “Fuck it” being very fast and almost hardcore song but remaining melodic in basic lines and chorus. The vocals remind me a bit of Toby Morse from H2O especially in that song, but maybe that is only me, maybe they will not sound the same to you. This is old school melodic punkrock in the vein of the bands who did that in the 90-ies and I am really glad that I found one more band who are playing that style of music.

7,5/10
