This band plays highly energetic melodic pop-punk with aggressive vocals. This is one of them bands that you'd probably want to see live just because they have so much energy on tape. All the music on this album is pretty tight. Everyone for sure knows their instrument - there's nothing really bad to say about how they play. They also have good back up vocals but are a bit underused. When they do use them, the songs sound really good. As far as songwriting, I could have used a little more variety and creativity. Most of the songs sound pretty much the same, but since the songs are all pretty good, you still have a solid punk album. If you're tired of some of the recent sissy pop punk bands, get this album and get some fight back in your stereo.

Decapolis 2000Reviewed by Tom BastianThese guys of course remind me of the Broadways, but they also remind me a little bit of Johnny Respect's more edgier stuff, and Good Riddance. Vocally I really did not dig them, a little too scruffy sounding for me. I did like the aggressiveness though, and the way they didn't always stick to the basic punk rock style. The songs I like best on this CD include, "Someday We're All Gonna Weigh 400…Decapolis 2000Reviewed by Matt AI was excited when I first received this CD because it features an ex-member of the Broadways, who I've enjoyed for a while. It's straight up punk rock, with some catchy parts. If you like your punk dirty and in-your-face, check this one out. BSimilar sounding releases
