With The Punches released first new e.p. being the first new release in nine years with the help of Mutant League Records. There are five songs on this little e.p. and it is just classy. Stoneham Blues is a fast skate punk nineties influenced song with fast verse and slower, more atmospheric chorus, having so sweet melody. Discontent is more of a pop punk song with groove, likeable guitar work and uplifting melody topped with harmonious vocals which are awesome. Lyrically, With The Punches deal more with personal side of life and I think with music like this, it is also one of the reasons why I love punk rock like this one, because I can relate to the lyrics. Mirage is my personal favorite of all five records, but that place is in fact rotating as I listen to this e.p. more, because all of the songs are just great. Listen to this five songs and decide for yourself which one is your favorite.
