SUMMARY:The Bouncing Souls
DESCRIPTION:The Bouncing Souls are something of a punk rock institution. The band have been consistently churning out their beloved brand of anthemic punk since 1989\, and have earned an intensely loyal fanbase with tireless touring and an unrelenting love of making music. As the band approached the creation of their tenth full length\, they sought to make a record that captured the spirit of their earlier work\, while incorporating who they are today. That record is Simplicity and its 13 tracks of undeniably infectious punk rock prove that The Bouncing Souls have a lot more to say. \nIn making Simplicity\, The Bouncing Souls set out to write songs that\, first and foremost\, would translate into the live environment. With over 20 years worth of anthems under their collective belt\, it’s a challenge to write a setlist that incorporates newer material\, but Simplicity’s many standouts are more than up to the task. Next\, the band enlisted the help of producer John Seymour\, who manned the mixing boards for their fan favorite LPs How ISpent My Summer Vacation and Anchors Aweigh\, to record the album with all of the raw energy of the live performance. The production of Simplicity perfectly embodies the band’s bite and power\, the driving guitars\, prominent bass\, rock-solid drums\, and soaring vocals all cutting through with no unneeded studio shine. From speedy hardcore-influenced ragers\, to comparatively tender punk ballads\, Simplicity’s dynamics show every side of The Bouncing Souls. \nOn Simplicity\, The Bouncing Souls do what so few long-running bands are able to accomplish: they utilize all of the skills and lessons that come from over 20 years of making music\, while still capturing the reckless spontaneity of their past work. That delicate balance can only be found if there’s a sincerity in the songs that comes from genuine love of playing music together\, and The Bouncing Souls have that in spades. \n\n \n\nH2O\nFormed in 1994 by Sick of It All roadie Toby Morse\, H2O was one of the more prominent bands in the second wave of straight-edge hardcore. Throughout the 1990s and 2000s\, the band toured relentlessly\, becoming synonymous with the East Coast hardcore sound that encapsulated the gritty attitude of New York City in melodic riffs\, principled lyrics\, and rushing tempos. The band had a brief dalliance with major label MCA\, releasing 2001’s Go and 2002’s All We Want EP with the major before returning to their indie roots with 2008’s Nothing to Prove. \nNew York City hardcore band H2O began as a group of friends headed by Sick of It All roadie Toby Morse\, who would perform a song called “My Love Is Real” at shows where there was no opening act. Crowd response encouraged the band to give music a serious try\, and their initial membership featured Morse (vocals)\, Rusty Pistachio (guitar)\, Eric Rice (bass)\, and Max Capshaw (drums). H2O’s ceaseless touring quickly earned them a following along the East Coast\, their fan base growing as the band opened bigger shows early in their career for acts like Rancid and No Doubt. After a European tour in 1995\, Capshaw left the band\, and ex-Outcrowd members Todd Morse (guitar; Toby’s brother) and Todd Friend (drums) joined. H2O opened for such bands as the Mighty Mighty Bosstones\, Quicksand and CIV\, and their self-titled debut was released in 1996. Their second album\, Thicker Than Water\, was issued by Epitaph in 1997; it featured new bassist Adam Blake (ex-Shelter). F.T.T.W.\, the band’s third album\, was released in 1999. Two years later\, the band signed to MCA and issued Go!\, followed closely by the All We Want EP\, which appeared in fall 2002. Around this time the band also turned some heads with their cover of Ice Cube‘s ubiquitous hit “It Was a Good Day.” Throughout the band’s tenure\, touring and connecting with fans through live performance was one of the constants of their appeal. H2O’s iconic status in hardcore circles was owed largely to their willingness to bring their show to the fans\, and they were early participants in different package tours like Warped Tour. They toured nonstop during their brief involvement with MCA\, but didn’t release new music until 2008’s Nothing to Prove\, which was put out by indie label Bridge 9 Records. \nReleased in 2011\, the aptly named Don’t Forget Your Roots saw H2O covering some of the bands that influenced them over the years\, while 2015’s Use Your Voice found them celebrating their 20th anniversary with an all new set of originals. Following the album’s release\, more touring ensued\, with Todd Morse leaving the band for a time but ultimately returning. Around 2017\, an announcement was made that Use Your Voice would be the final studio album from H2O\, but in what capacity the band would exist from that point on was unclear. Later that year\, the band’s first demos from 1994 were widely released on Bridge 9 Records. The six songs had previously only been available as a self-released demo cassette in the band’s early days and on a two-song EP\, but were remastered and released as The Don Fury Demo Session. Fury\, still active in recording 20 some years later\, remastered the archival demos himself. ~ Steve Huey\, Rovi \n\n\n \n\nAdolescents\n• THE ADOLESCENTS • Adolescents are a punk band hailing from Fullerton\, California\, United States who formed in 1980. Since their debut they have become one of the most influential punk bands of their time\, providing the blueprint for skate-punk and hardcore bands in their wake from Blink-182 to Pennywise. Formed by vocalist Tony Cadena and bass player Steve Soto in late 1979\, the assorted line-ups of Adolescents have featured a veritable who’s who of players from the biggest names of the California punk scene. Soto himself cut his teeth performing in Agent Orange and in Adolescents’ very first line-up\, their guitarist Frank Agnew was late of Social Distortion. Even though the band couldn’t quite keep a steady rhythm section throughout their first year\, they still managed to sign to Posh Boy Records and release their debut single “Amoeba” later in 1980. Almost exactly a year after their debut\, the band had recruited Agnew’s brother Rikk into the fold on Rhythm guitar\, and fellow Social D veteran Casey Royer on the drums\, and they were ready to go into the studio to record their first album. They signed with Frontier Records to release it\, and the selftitled record was released was released in May after being recorded and mastered in four days flat. The album was hugely acclaimed and was for a time the biggest selling Californian punk album ever after “Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables” by The Dead Kennedys. Unfortunately\, this wasn’t enough to keep the band together after more than a few months. Rikk Agnew was the first to go\, and briefly the band replaced him with The Germs’ Pat Smear (who would later join the Foo Fighters)\, but he was unable to tour with the band. By August\, the writing was on the wall and the Adolescents split up\, each member either joining existing bands or starting new ones. While the story of the Adolescents was far from over\, it wasn’t until the start of the 21st century that the band started finally getting their dues\, even after reuniting for three years in 1986. Many bands who swore by their first two albums became enormous in the 1990’s\, like Blink-182\, The Offspring and Red Hot Chili Peppers to name but a few. This level of exposure meant that when the band reunited again in 2001\, they did so to a far bigger audience than they’d ever had before\, and they immediately began performing live at the biggest shows of their career. The band have released five acclaimed studio albums since reforming ◦ OC Confidential (2005) ◦ The Fastest Kid Alive (2011) ◦ Presumed Insolent (2013) ◦ La Vendetta… (2014) ◦ Manifest Density (2016) • and are a bigger live draw than ever before\, as their heroic slot on the 2010 Vans Warped Tour show. Sadly in June of 2018 they lost one of their founding members: Steve Soto. Unsure how to move forward they play in his honor so the music he created\, the friendships he built and the smile he always shared can be remembered and cherished forever. \n\n\n \n\nThe Jack Knives\nThe Jack Knives are an American rock band from Orange County\, California\, formed in 2018. The band consists of British singer/songwriter Si Short (lead vocals\, rhythm guitar)\, Faris “Dragon” Muhtaseb (lead guitar\, backing vocals)\, Bryan “Brooce” Lee (bass guitar\, backing vocals)\, and Drew Baker (drums\, percussion).​ \nRooted in the punk rock sound\, The Jack Knives write sincere\, honest\, and passionate songs about love\, life\, death\, and romance. The band has stated its influences are wide and varied\, and this can be heard in the music. Songs like “New York City” give lyrical nods to artists like The Beastie Boys\, The Pogues\, and Bob Dylan. Other songs give proud props to bands like The Gaslight Anthem and Social Distortion.

DESCRIPTION:The title track of the band’s new album\, Myself in the Way\, speaks to this mindset. “I can’t put myself in the way of love again\,” sings Getz\, “I promise I’m going to go all the way with you\,” is specifically about Getz getting engaged to his longtime partner\, but applies to the general outlook he had toward life in lockdown. “I was living in Sebastopol\, California at the time and felt like I truly lived there for the first time since I wasn’t leaving for tour. I was able to go meditate at the Zen Buddhist dojo down the road\, run and bike around the hills in Sonoma county\, learn about plants and gardening\, take some Spanish and arboriculture classes\, and get involved with the volunteer fire department. Just do a bunch of new things to challenge and inspire me in a natural way.” \nTurnover’s other members also used the time to deepen interests they hadn’t been able to fully explore before covid. Bass player Dan Dempsey was in New York City and responded to lockdown by spending more time practicing his visual art in drawing and painting. He painted the album’s cover during this period and developed a style that has become a central theme for the band in its current iteration. Drummer Casey Getz found work at a Virginia Beach state park as touring continued to be postponed. He was in search of and inspired by having a work-life balance different than he’d experienced since he was younger. Through this\, he was able to nurture current relationships more and find new ones\, something touring made much more difficult. This led to Casey playing drums with a group of longtime friends in Virginia Beach and further developing his drumming style – adding a new prowess for fluidity and improvisation through lengthy jam sessions with the group. Guitarist Nick Rayfield was focused on sharpening his guitar and piano playing and was able to devote energy to skateboarding and his retail business more than he had been able to for the last few years. This was also the band’s first album with Rayfield making songwriting contributions after touring with them for years as a live member\, adding a new creative element to the songs. \nOver 18 months Turnover weaved these individual experiences into a collective work\, recording the LP over two sessions with longtime collaborator Will Yip at Studio 4. Austin is credited\, for the first time\, as co-producer. \n“I had specific ideas for sound design on this album. I knew a lot of sounds I wanted to hear and use. We wanted everything to be able to be heard and have its own place. I was inspired by the way Magical Mystery Tour and Dark Side of the Moon sounded. We decided to go a lot wider with it and utilize panning and stereo more than we had in the past\, while also wanting it to sound tighter and smaller than some of our earlier records. We were inspired by drum and bass sounds from Chic and Quincy Jones records from the 70s\, so we put the drums in the control room to get them to sound smaller. We used an active pickup bass and a jazz bass to get that percussive sound from the bass so the low end wasn’t as rumbling and subby. We let the synths share some of that low end that the drums and bass gave up. Quincy’s approach to arrangements were a huge inspiration in this record as well. The horn and string lines I wanted to sound like classic era disco\, mixed with modern synth and vocal sounds. I had been experimenting with my own vocal styles a lot and utilized autotune and vocoder on this album almost as instruments on certain songs as a stylistic choice.” \nThe band has always been DIY\, but post pandemic they have taken that to a different level. They appreciate more than ever how lucky they are to get to be together and have fun creating things with their friends. They have found that they are usually best suited for executing their own vision\, not only musically\, but with all its accompaniments as well. For this album they made all their own videos in collaboration with friends and using Dempsey’s drawings and paintings. \nChange is authentic and true to Turnover as a band and as individuals. Chart a course through their discography and find a band continually reinventing themselves with a unique artistic ambition. Myself In The Way arrives finding Turnover doing the same within their own persons\, pushing the band into new and exciting parallel depths of expression. \n\n \n\nBalance and Composure\nwith you in spirit\, the fourth Balance and Composure LP\, is an arresting\, atmospheric collection of melodic post-punk and towering rock. Due out October 4 on long-time collaborator and Grammy-nominated producer Will Yip’s Memory Music\, it’s the band’s first LP in eight years\, and a thrilling full-length comeback after their four-year hiatus. It thunders and stirs\, dipping between beautiful\, crystalline arrangements and punishing\, earth-shaking climaxes; in between all\, a gripping\, near-physical tension crackles and growls and grooves\, waiting to rip open. \nIt’s an intensely self-reflective record for vocalist and guitarist Jon Simmons\, an uprooting and examination of the supports on which a life is built. Preemptive grief\, wrestling with god and faith\, familial responsibility\, familial mortality—these are the things Simmons was carrying while writing this material. They’re also things he was trying\, for better and worse\, to avoid—hence the record’s title. \nwith you in spirit feels like the work of songwriters reaching new heights\, exploring new depths. Sometimes\, the record itself feels like a band grappling with its own avoidance\, its own mortality\, and deciding to face these things the only way they know how. Balance and Composure are with us in spirit\, yes\, but in the flesh\, too\, for now. \n\n\n \n\nHorse Jumper of Love\nHorse Jumper of Love thrive on patient and uncompromising songs. Thanks to frontman Dimitri Giannopoulos’ evocative lyrics and arrangements that suddenly turn from delicate to blistering\, their music is full of intensity. While the Boston trio\, which also includes bassist John Margaris and drummer James Doran\, has stretched the fringes of indie\, their latest is their most immediate yet. Out August 16 via Run For Cover Records\, Disaster Trick tackles self-destructiveness with healing and heart. \nWhere Horse Jumper of Love’s last release 2023’s Heartbreak Rules excelled with quiet\, bare-bones songwriting\, Disaster Trick cranks up the volume while keeping the no-frills intimacy of the band’s catalog. Recorded at Asheville\, North Carolina’s Drop of Sun Studios with producer Alex Farrar (Wednesday\, Indigo De Souza)\, the recordings soar with searing guitars and an unshakeable rhythm section. “I tried the quiet thing on the last album and I realized there’s definitely two parts of me: I like really heavy music\, and I like really gentle music\,” says Giannopoulos. “The two albums I listened to the most while we were in the studio were Leonard Cohen’s Songs From a Room and Hum’s Downward is Heavenward.” This contrast between quiet and loud exists throughout Disaster Trick but it’s animated by stark emotion and straightforward\, timeless songwriting. \nDisaster Trick feels like a creative reset. It’s also Horse Jumper of Love distilled to their purest essence\, which is partly due to Giannopoulos’ recent sobriety. “This was the first album I’ve ever done where I went into it with a very clear mind\,” he says. “In the past\, we would just show up at a studio\, drink\, and record. Here\, everything felt purposeful.” With newfound energy\, the band revisited old\, unfinished material like “Gates of Heaven\,” which dates back nearly a decade. Originally written during a period Giannopoulos describes as full of immaturity\, he sings\, “I am late to work again / I’m always missing something / when I walk out the door.” By focusing on a mundane moment\, he highlights how self-defeating behaviors can linger. \nFor the band\, the album marked an opportunity to strip down their songwriting to the essentials: urgent\, accessible arrangements full of catharsis. “This album helped me realize that a lot of the time\, simplicity is the answer\,” says Giannopolous. Lead single “Wink\,” captures this perfectly. When Giannopoulos sings over hushed guitars\, “And your arms have never looked / More empty than they do from here\,” his delivery exudes a remarkable earnestness. As the track hits a boiling point in its thunderous chorus\, it’s disarmingly raw. Other songs like “Today’s Iconoclast” are imbued with wry humor\, referencing both “the Amazon Basics Bible” and playing “fuck\, marry\, kill” in consecutive verses. Whatever the mood\, Giannopoulos’ lyrical directness anchors Disaster Trick. \nWhile in Asheville\, the band enlisted collaborations from Wednesday’s Karly Hartzman and MJ Lenderman as well as Squirrel Flower’s Ella Williams. Opening track “Snow Angel” kicks off with a growling\, shoegaze-tinged guitar riff. It’s a heavy song that’s grounded by wistfulness. “Would you pull me a feather / From your pillow – I want to dream like you\,” sings Giannopoulos. Throughout\, Disaster Trick navigates uncomfortable\, dark thoughts with a subtle grace. On the downtempo and compelling “Word\,” Giannopoulos finds lightness in relationship malaise: “Last night we had a fight / You blamed it on the moon / But that’s not very fair to the moon.” \nDisaster Trick is a dark record but there’s a glimmer of hope throughout. As he sings on “Death Spiral\,” “I know it sounds dramatic / But I must describe / The way that it felt.” This gets to the core of the album: looking back on mistakes with the grace and clarity that comes from growing up. “A lot of the songs came out of this point where things in my life were going well but I couldn’t accept it\,” says Giannopoulos. “I was being a brat. Disaster Trick is me cleaning up my act and reflecting on it.”
