the same time scratchy sounds.

(record review)ELWAY-“For the sake of the bit”(Red Scare Industries)

Elway is an American punkrock band from Colorado. “For the sake of the bit” is their latest album and I listened to it and reviewed it for this webzine.

As the readers of this webzine are already aware I love and always appreciate the emotion and melody behind punkrock music and Elway provides all of that with this album. The album contains 8 melodic punkrock songs, this is not fast hardcore stuff, this is more of a Nothington/Menzingers stuff meaning melodic punk with personal lyrics and emotional choruses made for singing along. Personally, the best songs for me on the album are “Hold on”, “Selfish masochistic psychic trauma” and “Paper guitars”. This is an excellent album for listening to chill out but also to throw out of your system something that hurts you and doesn´t leave you be. So, I am recommending you, if you love punkrock done in melodic but at the same time personal way, get this one.

(record review)The Flatliners-“Mass Candescence e.p.”(Dine Alone Records)

The Flatliners released their new e.p. via Dine Alone Records. I count myself lucky that I was able to listen and review the record for this webzine.

The record contains three songs and it practically continues where the current studio album “Inviting Light” left off. This means melodic punkrock with a lot of emotions behind the music and lyrics. “The Arousal of Repair” is for me the best song on this record being straight in the head and when I listen to this song I am talking about some classy punkrock forya. When I was a younger kid I didn´t like bands like The Flatliners because I thought that they were too slow and calm for my rebel punkrock taste. Nowadays things are different and I dig bands like these a lot. Frontman Chris Cresswell sounds better than ever and “Moves Too Quickly” is a song based on nice vocal melody and great guitar memorable melodies to support it. “Wide eyes” complete the album nicely creating that hole that just leaves you wanting more. I guess that is what makes this record great!
