MILLENCOLIN KINGWOOD DOWNLOAD FREE

There are plenty of good, catchy tunes and thankfully, very little filler on Kingwood , such as the anthemic "Birdie" and "Biftek Supernova," which recalls old Bad Religion. The real standout here, however, is the penultimate track, "Mooseman's Jukebox. As promised, Kingwood is a faster, more aggressive offering than the mid-tempo, rock-oriented Home From Home. The balladic "Shut You Out" is one of the few subdued moments among this set, and even the poppier cuts "Cash Or Clash," "Ray" are loud and punchy. The lone exception might be the aforementioned "Mooseman's Jukebox," the verses of which are simply other bands' song titles cleverly arranged to form rhymes. Instead, we are given heartfelt, meaningful lyrics about living up to one's potential "Birdie" or the frustration of feeling constrained by others' expectations "Ray". Finally, if you're waiting for Millencolin to bring back the ska, you're out of luck; there's nary an upstroke to be found on this album.
