Album Notes & Community Reviews

Purposely abandoning the frantic pop-punk energy that defined their commercial breakthrough, 'On a Wire' reveals a more subdued, mature indie rock sound. The band incorporates acoustic instrumentation and country-tinged melodies to explore deeper, bittersweet emotional terrain.
