FEATURE: A look into pop-punk throughout 2011 and its highlights!
January 10th, 2012 by admin
We all know that the mainstream in the last few years have been dominated by manufactured boy bands, passing themselves off as more than mere pop bands by their ability to play instruments, and in some cases not even then. We all know who I’m talking about. They took pop-punk and soiled its good name, and warped it beyond recognition. However, something seems to have kicked in in 2011, are we growing tired of this mainstream bullshit fad?

Rating:
Being just one of many up and coming pop-punk bands right now; This Time Next Year explode onto the scene with their sophomore album, ‘Drop Out Of Life’. The album is full of big, crunching riffs that will have you playing air guitar in no time at all. Huge choruses that will stick around in your head longer than the sight of your mum in her underwear. It’s a real throwback to the classic pop-punk sound of New Found Glory, which will have you rolling in the nostalgia.
