Cousin Dale took ten years to complete this record, so it’s no coincidence the songs evoke pop-punk circa 1995: Green Day, MxPx, NOFX (singer Mike Cerruti even sounds a bit like Fat Mike), plus a dash of the Ramones. For anyone who shared their teenage years with those bands, it’s nice to hear this faithful, if not pitch-perfect tribute.
