Brilliant.

Got this album after being recommended by a friend. He described the band as the Weakerthans meet The Front Bottoms.I do believe he was correct. This album has very catchy lyrics with great guitar throughout it. It's got a good mix of quick songs with electric guitars and a few slow acoustic songs.I found the acoustic songs pretty refreshing as I feel like ever since Brand New's Your favourite weapon bands seem to feel like they need to include that "slow acoustic" song on every album they do. You definitely don't! It's been done so many times and its getting a bit old so a different approach is needed.Enter Modern Baseball with acoustic songs which are slow, heartfelt and completely catchy as hell!Add in some quick electric guitars on the other songs with some clever lyrics on top and you've got an album that you'll listen to over and over again.Give them a shot!
