Fireworks – Gospel LP (grey marble /500)

‘All I Have To Offer Is My Own Confusion’ has to be one of my favourite pop punk records of all time. As a result ‘Gospel’ had a lot to live up to.

‘Gospel’ picks up where AIHTOIMOC left off. The style of pop punk is the same but with a more ‘mature’ angle taken this time around. I really can’t fault any of the songs on ‘Gospel’ either, well except ‘I Am The Challenger’, a token acoustic song which sticks out and slows the record down.

The packaging of this record is pretty good. I like the artwork (drawn by Michael Burdick) and the layout on the gatefold jacket. The vinyl looks great as well. It’s sort of a grey marble.

This band really has something special don’t pass them off as just another pop punk band.

FFO: Saves The Day, Say Anything and New Found Glory.
