What can you say about a compilation album? You can certainly say this one is a corker. It’s 50 songs from some of the biggest names from this years Warped Tour line up.
The album kicks off with cover stars Of Mice & Men’s song Bones Exposed and you already know this is going to be some of the best music around at the moment showcased on 2 CDs for your listening pleasure.
As ever with Warped tour they like to showcase new talent as well as old and they like to show the best of punk and hardcore from around. This CD really highlights that ethos by featuring new bands like Neck Deep and Beartooth and older bands like Less Than Jake and Every Time I Die.
This album is sure to help you find one new band to like at least and allow you to enjoy some you’re already familiar with. It’s 50 very different and unique tracks, really allowing you to try out a range of sounds and 50 different bands, such as Mayday Parade, The Devil Wears Prada, Falling In Reverse, We Are The In Crowd, Marmozets, Anberlin, Issues and Ice Nine Kills to name just some of the artists features on the record.
If you’re going to get any compilation album this year, this could be the one to really bring about the summer drives this year.
