MxPx
MxPx "This is a band that has been around for over 10 years and released over seven full-lengths, four EPs, three compilation CDs, and one live album; almost all of these with the same three members. They've written songs from each end, and just about every level in-between, of the pop-punk spectrum. Fast and raucous to extremely poppy - they've done it." "The album opens with two tracks begging to be played at full volume ("Secret Weapon" and "Shut it Down") - both feature brisk drums, clever progressions, and Mike's vocals frantically trying to keep cadence." "To be honest, this may be exactly what our current music scene needs - a swift kick in the ass. I hope everyone that gives this band a listen (for the first or 100th time) is as excited as I was upon my first and (not soon to be) last walk through MxPx's Secret Weapon. A more fitting title I've never seen." -- AbsolutePunk.net
