Substance, the latest release by Austin, TX based Yard Arm has exactly that. Straight up alt rock in the vein of Third Day, with a little more edge. Above average production. All the things that make a band feel like a goal has been accomplished. After seven years, they've earned themselves a name locally by regularly playing the club/venue circuit. The band, according to their bio, is about "making music that people can enjoy, but more importantly [making] music that people can relate to." While this is a lofty populist goal, it's one these guys are definitely up for. Check them out at www.yardarm.org.
