Radical Radical drops another really great song titled “Middle Aged Masterpiece”. This is a heart on the sleeve, extremely honest, and completely vulnerable. This expression of age through the lens of someone hanging on with hope in their heart, and love in their eyes is nothing short of extraordinary. Inspired songwriting with pure pop-punk spirit. I love this song so much and the first one that dropped, “Misfit Toys”, is just as good. If this is any indication of what’s to come with a full length or EP, then we are quite possibly looking at something mind blowing.… Continued →

Today’s Song of the Day post (by me, Brandon) is none other than Value Pac, a short lived and mostly “90’s” exclusive, pop-punk act. The band got their humble beginnings in 1995 here in Orange County, CA. I first heard of the band with a demo tape under their original name, One by One at a show I went to in Tustin, CA. circa 1995. The band played raw (sometimes rough) pop-punk that would please punk purists and pop fans at heart. It was the perfect blend of poppy melodies over a garage-y like sound mixed with the sun soaked beaches and concrete jungle of Southern California.… Continued →

Light The Way will return this year with quite possibly, THE BEST pop-punk album in years. The band known for their high energy, spirit-filled, unique sound is quite remarkable in a scene with run of the mill relationship driven songs and profanity laden banter. The band seek to change things up by connecting with audiences in a deeply emotional, honest, and spiritual way. They make heads explode, bodies dance, and lips sing. If you haven’t heard Light The Way, you are doing yourself and the scene a huge disservice.… Continued →

I’ll just come out and say it, “Deathbed” is quite possibly the best “Christian” song that has been written in the past 15 years. That is quite a statement to make and I’ll tell you why. First of all, bands who can create an 11 minute “epic” song with constant peaks and valleys all the while captivating the listener with a heavy dose of heart tugging melodrama, you know they are doing it right. I don’t know what it is and maybe that’s just me being a sentimental, sappy fool, but when I give this track a listen, I am left with a tear(s) streaming down my cheek.… Continued →
