Walt Hamburger is in no way stranger to the pages of this webzine. This new record contains first new music since 2019. And also, this time it is a full band record, not him solo on acoustic guitar. Walt gathered a formidable group of musicians with him, namely Neil Hennessy (Lawrence Arms), Asher Simon (Joey Cape’s Bad Loud), Mikey Erg (Ergs, Unlovables), & Jon Snodgrass (Drag the River, Scorpios). This new opus contains 8 songs of heartfelt emotional punkrock, a mix of melodic punkrock and pop punk. Lyrics are such beauty on this record, being almost poetry. Songs are mixture of more straightforward pure punkrock songs, and also atmospheric almost pure acoustic songs like for example one of my favorites being Do Crimes. Walt has such beautiful voice and I dare say he is one of the top singers in the melodic punkrock scene nowadays. Other songs which I must name as my favorites on this record are Insolence and Stay. Listening to this record kinda wakes within me melancholy and sadness, but also glimpses of hope ahead of me. Awesome record indeed, maybe a bit short but sweet! 9/10
