Summer is on, the best season of the year is on, and how better to accompany the barbecue party on a sunny day than with the new, second studio album by Australian trio Columbus.

This Brisbane, Australia trio just released their brand new studio effort which contains 10 songs of nice melodic punkrock, almost pop punk with a slight touch of indie rock. Don´t let that scare you when you see pop punk added to these guys band name. Quite the contrary, the set of songs on this album provided by this band is just awesome as a soundtrack for daydreaming on a hot, summer day and riding on your bike or just having a lazy beer in someone´s backyard. The songs are not fast, they are punkrock mid tempo but I personally love “Care at all” having a nice harmonic chorus. “Give up” is also one of my personal favorites on this record. This is a feelgood record. I couldn´t listen to is every day, that´s true, but I loved it today!
