---------------------------------------------------------------------// notes
Banquets approach to punk rock is a breath of fresh air in a crowded scene.
While admittedly the band was originally formed for fun by a group of
friends, BanquetsÆ debut 7ûinch, ôThis Is Our Concern, Dude.ö, flashes some
impressive songwriting. That should come as little surprise though given the
bandÆs pedigree. These guys have paid their dues in previous bands like Let
Me Run, The Stand In, and The Banner. Those past experiences have obviously
served them well as the bandÆs rustic brand of anthemic and melodic punk rock
should have fans of The Gaslight Anthem and The Loved Ones drooling for more.
Enjoy this hot release by your "wannabe scene kid" friends in ALTDIGITAL.
Oh FNT, if you only knew...
