Long Way Home by Next Year

So, I've never actually worked with Next Year before... however, I've been following them for a while now.

From the teasers they'd posted of this song, I knew I was going to love it, and it didn't disappoint!

Next year are a midlands based pop-punk/punk rock band (what a shock), and honestly, this song is insane! I love it, so let's dive into my thoughts!

I love the intro to the track as the build up is pretty satisfying to listen to. It's very much a traditional pop punk song, rather than the more pop orientated pop punk. This is how I wish pop-punk still sounded, and for that, I have a lot and respect for Next Year.

This song definitely packs a punch, and I do truly believe it's an incredible track. I would 100% recommend it to you if you enjoy pop-punk/punk rock. For me these are like some of my favourite genres, pop-punk is my favourite genre so I may be a bit bias, but I do think it's incredible and Next Year have so much talent, just listen to a few songs and you'll see why. They're insanely good.

The important bit, which I cannot do a review without saying any more, so if you're a regular you know exactly what's coming... it's got change and depth to the sound and it's got a decent set of lyrics. I'd very much early 2010's pop-punk and I fucking love that! Honestly, so because of the change in the songs, it's exciting, which as I always say, is very important to me.

A lot of pop-punk bands seem to have strayed from the genre and more towards sounding like a mass-produced band, sell-outs if you want to call them that, but Next Year have that refreshing sound about them that I miss music sounding like. This was the sort of music that got me into pop-punk, so honestly, please go check it out. It's great.

Overall, I'll give it a 5 out of 5 lemons, it deserves that because it is that good! I really would strongly recommend it to you!

Demon on the Run by Four Thousand Miles

After what feels like forever (when in reality it's only been 6 months), Four Thousand Miles are back! Because it's been so long, and I know over the past few months there's been a big increase in the traffic to this blog, and there are new readers, let me just give you a brief recap on who 4KM are! Four Thousand Miles are an international rock band, and their name comes from the fact that between Alex M and Lionel there's 4000 miles! The band consists of; Alex F - Vocals and guitar Lionel - Guitar Alex M - Drums Liam - Bass They now have 3 tracks out, Lonely, Reflections and the brand new track Demon on the Run! For anybody that cares, Four Thousand Miles are my joint-favourite small band and I would probably sell a few organs for them, also will eventually get a tattoo for them when little miss rona decides to leave us all alone. Anyway, let's get into the thoughts on the new song! I was super hyped for this song to drop, and I just knew they wouldn'

The Only Way Is Through by Nautical Mile, A Year On...

So, just over two weeks ago, The Only Way Is Through turned 1! If you have no idea what The Only Way Is Through is, then it's Nautical Mile's debut album. I've spoken about Nautical Mile a lot, on my socials and on here. Nautical Mile is in my top bands of all time, they are incredible! They are such a solid band and I have so much love and appreciation for them. I love them that much, that I probably would order their merch, but I'm kinda worried about umm shipping costs and import fees, especially when I'm a student and not on a lot of money. This album kind of changed my life. It is solid, it is possibly in my top 3 albums of all time, and that takes a lot for me to say. I found Nautical Mile not long after this album was released, and I've been hooked on them ever since. It started with Wake Up, and now I just love every single song they've put out. The whole point of me doing this post is to reflect on how I felt about the album a year ago, and compa

Purgatory by Nautical Mile

If you know me, or you're not new around here, then you will know that Nautical Mile is one of my all-time favourite bands. They're phenomenal, and I truly believe they are incapable of making bad music. They're the band behind my joint-favourite album of all time, and I never really shut up about them. So, if you're unfamiliar with them, then Nautical Mile are an Australian pop-punk/post-hardcore band! They're mind-blowingly incredible! They announced that they had signed to Manic Kat Records, and they dropped a new song on Friday, they didn't really announce it, they just did it. Straight off, I will admit that I couldn't resist listening to it, and I absolutely love it! I think it's incredible, but I don't want to say too much right now. We'll come back to this at the end. So Purgatory is similar to some of the tracks we saw on The Only Way Is Through, but the chorus really hits the spot. The chorus goes so far, and Brodi's vocals! Now
