Album Notes & Community Reviews

Bursting out of New Brunswick, New Jersey, the band's debut seamlessly merged the relentless, fast-paced energy of melodic punk with the working-class storytelling of Bruce Springsteen. Brian Fallon's raspy, passionate vocals narrate tales of fading American romanticism, establishing them instantly as vital voices in heartland punk.
