Album Reviews

Texas’ Thieves storm out of the gates with the title track and almost stumble over one another before going all out in a blaze of posi pop-punk. Apparently this 8-song EP is a concept album about overcoming your obstacles and ending up a better person… which seem like standard pop-punk lyrics to me so calling this a concept release might be overdoing it a little.

They are doing a solid job though and take cues from everyone from The Wonder Years to Set Your Goals and New Found Glory. The production leaves to be desired but if there’s one thing these Thieves achieve, it’s that they have plenty of potential that should appeal to all the pop-punk fans out there. A band to keep an eye out for!
