Album Review
The Wonder Years – “Suburbia: I’ve Given You All And Now I’m Nothing”
The first few times I listened to this CD I couldn’t help but think of the pop-punk emo bands that were so popular when I was in high school, especially Taking Back Sunday. The album is full of heartbreak, loneliness and growing up.
The first few times I listened to this CD I couldn’t help but think of the pop-punk emo bands that were so popular when I was in high school, especially Taking Back Sunday. The album is full of heartbreak, loneliness and growing up.
The album however, is also full of catchy melodies, and fun sing along choruses, with well-written, genuine lyrics, and a vibe that just screams high school summer heartbreak. The opening track, “Came Out Swinging” is appropriately named, as it sets the tone for the album in a big way – and I think it’s the standout track. This is a solid, fun, pop-punk CD for the Warped Tour crowd, which is at least worth a listen.
