Right from the opener “Biggest Lie“, it’s a wonderfully melodic punk rock song with a solid tempo, breaks, choruses, and singalongs that immediately put a smile on your face. Yes, you feel good. To avoid monotony, not all songs follow the same pattern. The album is very diverse. There are calm and reflective passages, even entire songs that are crafted in this manner. These are the songs that get under your skin, that make you pause.
NO USE FOR A NAME may have never been a hardcore polipunk band, but they have always had their opinions and have not shied away from expressing them. This album features some songs that you wouldn’t necessarily expect from NO USE FOR A NAME in this form. However, it’s not surprising to hear them. The album doesn’t quite deliver on its promise, as you don’t really want to feel good with some of the songs. The reality is presented too starkly. However, that doesn’t mean it’s not a good album from the band. Quite the opposite. It is a very good album. NO USE FOR A NAME has released a mature album with “The feel good Record of the Year“, showcasing the band’s life experience and reality, while still being clearly one thing: a NO USE FOR A NAME album, just as you would wish!
