There is something incredibly cool and groovy going on with this band. They do a fantastic job of calling back to several iconic punk & rock styles wrapped within their own original creations. As an example the opening lyrics section of this track immediately brought me back to the first Clash album (…and yes, I get it…CLASS…Clash…but still) especially some of the songs on the UK version like Deny and Protex Blue.
“Behind the Ball” is one of those tracks that gets right to the point and has a tight arrangement that keep your attention all the way through. Old-style punk in tone with power & rhythm to the front and a clean vocal line…a good listen and no filler. This release has a little cleaner mastering also than their prior releases (which you should check out also…there is a great song called “Box My Own Shadow” on Epoca de los Vaqueros ).
