Album Notes & Community Reviews

Solidifying their deeply dedicated fanbase, the New Jersey acoustic-punk duo polished their idiosyncratic sound on this infectious sophomore release. Brian Sella's nasally, conversational vocal delivery narrates intensely anxious tales of college life and romantic insecurity over punchy power-pop chords and prominent synthesizer hooks.
