Aaah, Pop Punk, Odi et Amo

Ok, I have to admit, I looked at this band due to one of their album names:  Safeways Here we Come.  Of course, if you don't get that reference, you probably aren't reading this blog.  Or, maybe you are.  Who knows? (ed-Google does)

So, listening in, it brought out the bespectacled twelve year old boy in me.  Basic chords, emo lyrics, formulaic stuff.  But you know what they say about formulas:  Formulas work.

Give a listen to Chixdiggit.  Love the name.  Grab some cheap beer and hang out near the 7/11.  Talk about the bullshit that you don't really want to change, and mess up your ollie and whack your skate deck against your chin. Good times.

Anyway.  Chixdiggit.  That they do.  I Remember You.  They may not have a large following, but they are on Fat Wreck Chords, in the same vein as Me First and Pennywise.  Good company.

Looks like today I'm wearing Vans to work.
