The first ever pop punk record on the TMR label! This is a special one, because this is a band that Matt quite literally grew up with. An iconic act from North Jersey in the mid 2000s, Centralside played sold out shows and won just about every Battle of the Bands that came around. The trio crafted masterful pop punk melodies that get stuck in your head for days, song after song, perfect for group singalongs or rocking out by yourself. Musically this could be put up against any of the great emo/pop-punk bands of the era, but the guys ended up forging more normal career paths rather than pursuing the musician life. That doesn't mean that the music has to live and die in early 2000s New Jersey, however. Matt has loved this album over the years for nostalgic reasons, but when Skyline Tapes approached him about wanting to do a split release (they specialize in hand dipped Cassette Tapes) -- Matt thought that perhaps the album should have a second wind through the label.
Take a listen below, and I think you'll really dig what you hear. This is a one time pressing on double splatter vinyl, so get it now and give this band the second wind they deserve.
