(review) Screaming at Traffic-I Don´t Like Sports(Little Rocket Records)

Screaming at Traffic from Canada just released their new record with Little Rocket Records and I listened and reviewed it for our zine.

This band comes from Winnipeg, Canada and they play a bit noisy, yet melodic and heartbreaking and heartwarming punkrock. The record contains 11 beautiful songs similar to the music of Menzingers, Nothington and similar bands. Meaning, melodic vocal lines, excellent personal lyrics, emotional atmosphere and tight musicianship. The songs that somehow stood out to me are Pantomime, Bitter, the title track and Monstrosity. This is not your fast paced skate hardcore punk, this is a different kind of punkrock. It is full of feelings, melodic, poetic and the overall vibe for me while listening to this record is kind of sad. Like it brings out to me all the sadness to the surface of my inner lake and then sending a wave to clear it up and bring me catharsis. That makes it really good and enjoyable record. So, if you are a fan of such music, go listen, write a word or two to the guys and show them you appreciate your work, I know they will appreciate it a lot.
