Countin´ Cards is the new project by Jesse Sendejas, known for his Days n Daze band that is also on Fat if I am not mistaken, and I think I am not. Well, let us talk about this great album. It offers 9 songs. What I love is diversity of this album and the songs, from ferocious angry hardcore punk of Heads Up 7 Up, across almost nineties pop punk/reggae influenced Shit Show with beautiful dual vocals and mandolin parts, courtesy of Veronica Sendejas, to Learning Curve reminding a bit of Less Than Jake and Nofx, but not as a copy, but in a good way. What is the strength of this record, besides good songwriting are vocals with such an easy transformation from screaming crust anger to great melodies and harmonies fitting perfectly in each part of the song. I would love to see how this band sounds live, I am sure it is fantastic show, energy and this record just brings smile to my face and songs like Wasted Years or 12 Rounds remind me why I love this kind of punk rock so much. Great album!
