This week it's delivered to Massachusetts punk band A Wilhelm Scream. One of the first punk bands I ever really got into years back, I hadn't really listened to them often until seeing them recently at Soundwave 2010. Seeing their zany, energetic stage antics shed new light on their music and what it's about: fun. Possibly one of the most professional and tight bands in the business, each member flawlessly portrays mastery of their respective instruments whilst still retaining a playful "anti-despair" mood about their music. These five musicians present a style of punk rock that instrumentally is heavily technical and melodic, and lyrically is dripping with wit, satire, metaphors and cynical statements. These five musicians present a style of punk rock with thought and substance beyond the crazy, energetic facade.A Sane Scream
Weekly "this artist keeps me sane" had been postponed until now, thanks to my unhealthy addiction to a certain video game. Sorry guys, I'll try my best to keep this blog alive.
